that's not what i meant. i meant that the notice will be only thing that happens to formally comply with the law and everyone will be able to download the firefox "on their own responsibility"
like when eu banned the classic lightbulbs, there was a discussion in my country because some idiots felt that "the dictatorship of eu is upon them again"
now these lightbulbs are being sold with the notice "for industrial use only, unsuitable for use in personal homes". every normal person buys led-bulbs and few thousand idiots are happy thinking how they showed them! 😆
Actally about those lightbulbs they are used if you are a machienist because most led lights tends to flicker which could cause stroboscope effect on fast moving parts and sometimes could present effect that something looks like is moving slower or in different direction that is really moving which could be dangerous. But there are also special machienist led bulbs but are more expensive than normal led bulbs. I am not a profesional machienist so sorry if i didnt describe it correctly but my point is that leds (if are not designed for machienist) are not safe in that particular usecase
i am aware of that problem. but the point is that people abuse that fact to continue using it in their living room, where sensible thing would be to just switch to led
Yeah i agree those are stupid especially with todays electricity prices
