Hi there,

I recently received notice of being a part of the one billionth data breach and I am officially sick of it. I love and use firefox and beta, but I know my privacy is not that protected. I was looking through reviews and found Waterfox which is supposed to be built on the firefox platform, but has better privacy protections. I downloaded it and all seemed right. I imported from Firefox. Then I tried to download it to my iphone and the only thing that came up was "Water Fox". I downloaded it and couldn't even get through opening it without crazy ads and it looking like some game app. It wanted my saved data from firefox to import. But, no way. Either this was pretending to be WaterFox and a scam, or WaterFox IS a scam. So, I'm hoping maybe someone here would know and would also know if I just made a huge mistake by installing this. If it were just an app pretending to be WaterFox, why wasn't there an actual waterfox app? That was the only one even close. And, the reviews said that WaterFox was students working with Firefox or something like that, but couldn't find anything about them in Firefox forums. Any info would be greatly appreciated. And, if I did just make a huge mistake, is there a way to fix it? I didn't sign in with the squirrely iphone app, but I did with the desktop. Eeeep.

Running the latest Firefox iteration on Mac, OS Sequoia 15.5. After the last recent update my bookmarks have vanished. I can only find a very outdated set related to an old profile (going back at least two years). There are no files anywhere in the library when I tried to follow instructions for restoration (most of which apply to Windows), and I can't find any backups. Is there a way of accessing and restoring the most recent backups or the original file in this situation?

NB is it possible that the update overwrote my profile with a new one? -- snapshot of the profiles on file attached. bit9ck45.default-release is the current profile; the other is the very outdated one.
