Well they spent so much on that huge circular building that they can't bear to have it go empty from here on out.

c64ec30650ea3c4on Update Regarding Add-Ons in Firefox

I'm shocked and suprised to find out that mozilla is using EXPIRING certificates for this. It requires them to continuously take action to prevent all addons from breaking, which will eventually fail (like it did).

Firefox has a pretty robust update system and everyone is used to frequent updates. Why don't they instead have a revocation system built into updates? That way they would have to take action to disable malicious addons, and the good ones could go on working forever.

Is there something about this idea that is so much worse than what happened today?
