While we already took an early look at Firefox 71, which our readers could download since yesterday, Mozilla has published more details release notes that highlight a much-improved built-in password manager that can now recognize subdomains and automatically fill domain logins and provide breach alerts from Firefox Monitor for users with screen readers. Furthermore, the integrated Enhanced Tracking Protection, which was enabled by default in the Firefox 69 release, now offers users more information about the actions it takes by displaying notifications when Firefox blocks cryptominers, as well as a running tally of blocked trackers in the protection panel, which users can access by clicking the address bar shield.
