Firefox 5 Rolls Out with Do Not Track Support on Multiple Platforms
Mozilla Firefox 5 includes more than 1,000 improvements and is the first browser to support Do Not Track on multiple platforms.
"Mozilla created Do Not Track to give users more control over the way their browsing behavior is tracked and used on the Web," the announcement says. The new feature is now easier to find and allows users to opt out of online behavioral tracking.
The newest release for Windows, Mac, and Linux now supports the CSS Animation standard, which is explained in a blog post on the hacks.mozilla.org developer site.
To get the latest release, check for updates under the About Firefox menu, or visit the Android Market to download Firefox for Android.
