I know this is only vaguely piracy related but I still think its important advice to all you sailors out there.

Security researchers found an actively exploited and pretty massive security vulnerability in Firefox versions < 131.0.2. With “pretty massive” I mean really really bad. So bad in fact that visiting a website with the exploit prepared in JavaScript will compromise your system as it allows arbitrary code execution.

Now since most of you probably sail the seas using some kind of Fox + UBlock, and a lot of piracy sites aren’t exactly… trustworthy, I highly recommend you all to patch the goddamn holes in your ship, for your own sake!
