At it's launch tech news reported the updated Firefox be the securest browser on the planet...
Removing those media buttons were likely a part of the security update. If there is a constant open handshake protocol sitting open in your browser
and say one of those medias are breached then it's left your browser wide open for attack since it has an open handshake protocol attached to it... in
such an instance it means all of your data could be phished from that media hot button as an open source entryway to do it; In much the way outdated
drivers and certificates are vulnerabilities.
If you miss them I suggest making them into bookmarks; when it is outdated it'll be a page not found which means just go to the sites home page and
make a new bookmark and delete the old one... as not all site certificates update or are current at the same time... when the site in question pays
it's bill it is still open to attack and vulnerability since it is clouded to not appear down to users not wanting to meet a maintenance screen or 404
when the certificate renews it rolls forwards and back to update the actual site and this sometimes breaks code and becomes data loss.
So that's basically all it is and what it is guarding against if your browser is left open to attack multiple times by multiple sites for nearly a day
every month then not allowing those an open handshake protocol only makes sense in the world of internet security.
