Mozilla believes in... free porn?
A few years ago, British newspaper The Telegraph covered the UK government's budget announcements by posting tweets onto their site that included the hashtag #budget. As you can imagine, this was soon abused, and Twitter users had much fun at the Telegraph's expense.
Well, apparently Mozilla hasn't learned, and so we were surprised to find a curious link on the Mozilla.org front page this morning, promising "Screenshot - Free Hard Sex Videos, XXX porn, Hot Sex...", apparently on the grounds that the link in question had "Mozilla Firefox" in its title.
We expect Mozilla will remove the offending link quickly enough, but let's hope they are smart enough to modify their Community Ticker code so it doesn't happen again. If you weren't lucky to catch the comedy URL yourself, we've put the pic below.

I thought that was supposed to be the beginning of an article on that private prowsing mode.
Browsing, not prowsing

That might be true when you're trying to access Mozilla.org with Google Chrome!
