Some final after thoughts...

I wonder if the topic is closed succesfully? The eula has changed into an webpage with the notice
and is being worked on is what i know sofar, but still gives Ubuntu an moral issue, as to where firefox should go now, in nonfree repositories?

Would it have been better for firefox to move anti-phishing non free software to the add-ons that you install on choice? Like the non free flash player, you can choose to install, the open source version being gnash. Maybe there will be an free solution for anti-phishing in the opensource field in the future...as SAAS.

The non free anti-phishing software in firefox is an component of the mozilla and Google cooperation i thought, and, as i understand, information is sent to google and mozilla, for the blacklist etc...
Mozilla and Google , being open source advocates, cant simply open source the lot?
They would win my vote for that :)

cheers!
