Mozilla warns Firefox fans its SHA-1 ban could bork their security

Firefox is getting more and more flaky as they go out on their own and far too many websites are now unusable. It is all very well doing this but they shoukd have some mechanism for informing the more important websites of their security problems. I have tried several times informing banks etc etc about their certificate issues and support for insecure protocols but they just deny everything and don't understand or care about the issues. Don't suggest changing banks because they all have similar problems.

On top of it all Firefox has the nerve to include insecure messaging protocols and other garbage that you can't uninstall.

Perhaps the Register could have an ongoing headline front page item with a hall of shame for the worst security issues of big organisations. Of course they would complain that this is helping the hackers.
