Logitech and multiple others are now blocking Firefox, for example.

[–] notacuban@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

That's a completely unrelated issue with Logitech. Firefox is "blocked" because it doesn't support WebUSB (nor does Safari). I understand this web DRM is bad tech and we want to be morally outraged, but spreading misinformation makes the Lemmy crowd look less like activists/enthusiasts and more like chicken little.

I can log on to logitech.com from Firefox just fine?

In what way? I was just now able to go to Logitech’s site on my Ubuntu laptop using Firefox with no discernible issues.
