I did not realize that any of the browsers could have some form of
limitations set on what they could do to the system. I assume that the
'containers' for Firefox is something like a sandbox for a program?
Wouldn't still be safer to have an externally enforced container than one
built in that someone could write a virus/malware to get around and still
cause trouble?
