Will this also affect Firefox for Android? Mozilla currently don't provide a dev build for Android, just regular and beta versions https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Mozilla https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Mozilla The security problem that this "fixes" is not really an issue on Android due to Android's own app sandboxing, so maybe the Android build will allow unsigned extensions? It's not mentioned in the FAQ.

Mozilla provides Aurora and Nightly for Android. They're just not on the Play Store, but you can download them from their website. https://nightly.mozilla.org/ https://nightly.mozilla.org/ not really an issue on Android due to Android's own app sandboxing A malicious add-on could still steal all your passwords.

  > A malicious add-on could still steal all your passwords. Of course, so can Mozilla, because Firefox Accounts are no longer secure (the login page downloads JavaScript assets from Mozilla, and could be used to snarf a particular user's password in a targeted attack, leaving no traces observable by other users).
