I switched from Google to DuckDuckGo quite a while ago now, at least a decade I think, and it meets my needs well enough that I have never bothered to try anything else.
I mean there wasn't really much need for it when the functionality has been available for ages in various extensions. Not least of which uBlock origin, which may as well be considered a must have for now.
Brave and firefox clearly differ on which features to add natively and which to allow extensions to fill in, but saying this makes firefox late to the party is just silly. You might as well point out that firefox has no ad blocking, even though uBlock origin recommends using firefox at this point.
It doesn't need to. It's only chromium that risks limiting extendability so much that ad blocking becomes impossible without changing core functionality of the browser.
Why does it not need to? It does block pop-ups after all, which came as a response to pop-up spam in the early days of the internet, and as a user-agent, browsers correctly decided to block this behavior for the benefit of their users.
Adblocking isn't a solved problem. Current state of the art borks a minority of websites. The user must diagnose that the problem is caused by adblock and either abandon their intended browsing or manually disable adblock.
Plenty of ordinary users don't mind ads. They'd be frustrated to be told there's now a "don't break the website" switch.
Adblocking requires very frequent updates. It's a cat-and-mouse game. Even if Firefox just installed UBO by default plenty of users would now start filing bugs on Firefox's tracker.
Part of the difference is that every browser blocks popups, so sites are incentiviced to fix the resulting breakage. But on sites run by people who don't care about usability (like some governments and banks) you'll still see messages informing you to allow popups.
A user-agent should give users agency, it doesn't have to make all decisions for them. It wouldn't necessarily be bad of firefox to block more ads, but I'm perfectly happy with it blocking only the clearly malicious content like pop-ups, trackers, fingerprinters, crypto-miners and leaving the rest for users to decide themselves.
In Brazil, the police isn't allowed to do this. The justice system accepts that the perpetrator would not follow the course of action if the government haven't created a hitman site.
This approach by the fbi can lead to some bizarre situations. They shouldn't have that power.
entrapment would be more like tempting someone into doing crime, this honeypot is more a public safety service as it targets already would be murderers
More importantly, "During the peak of its efficiency, MOXIE produced 12 grams of oxygen an hour at 98% purity or better." I don't know what the requirements for peak efficiency are, but in theory it could sustain 6 people indefinitely if that could be sustained.
Article says: “Since then, MOXIE has generated 122 grams of oxygen, equal to what a small dog breathes in 10 hours, according to NASA.” I guess the exercise is left to the reader for the small dog:human ratio.
