Don't Use Firefox--UPDATED

Anonymous took a break from hacking police, government, and video game companies and hacked child porn servers. Unfortunately, instead of giving the data quietly to law enforcement, they just dumped it on the Internet, for the LULZ. And who knows how much of that data waa faked, fingering innocent people? The attackers already admitted that they falsely added th3j35t3r to the list of pedophiles.

But there's something new this time:

3) We secretly contacted our friends at The Mozilla Foundation™, Developers of Firefox™, for them to authorize a developer signer certificate for "The Honey Pawt", a TorButton that we Anon created to funnel all ORIGINATING traffic to our forensic logger.

That is line 24 of this announcemnt:

If true, that makes Mozilla Anonymous' first corporate sponsor.

Don't use Firefox! When you put on your next update, you could very well be placing your computer under the control of Anonymous, or whoever else tells Mozilla an exciting story.

Mozilla has some explaining to do.

UPDATE: Mozilla has responded:

We haven't been contacted by Anonymous or received any add-on submissions matching that description. While Firefox add-ons can be digitally signed for extra security, Mozilla does not issue signing certificates to do so. All add-ons submitted to our official gallery are reviewed for security and privacy concerns, as described in our policies: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/docs/policies/reviews
