Mozilla Firefox 96 is released with improvements to the audiovisual experience and protection against cookies

Mozilla is making it available this Tuesday (11) Firefox 96. The browser update is released with more subtle tweaks to the behavior of the software, but it brings changes in the management of cookies to ensure better protection against website tracking. In addition, users will be able to observe changes in their audiovisual experience.

The foundation highlights that the browser will now have a improved noise suppression system for playing videos, in addition to of the new Automatic Gain Control (AGC), which adjusts the amplitude of signals for a more constant and uniform audio experience, and an echo cancellation function.

The new version should also guarantee improved performance by reducing the main thread load used by the browser. As a result, the PC’s hardware resources must be better preserved and mobile devices must observe an increase in autonomy.

For third-party website tracking protection, Firefox 96 will now use the setting Same-Site=lax by default, which, according to Mozilla, provides a “solid line of defense” against attacks Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This type of threat has been used since the dawn of the web to collect confidential user data.

Changes must be in all versions of Firefox — including Windows,

Linux, macOS and Android. The latter, by the way, should bring some discreet changes to the “Jump back in” feature to highlight the most recent pages and searches, as well as improvements in the display of images from “Favorites” sites.
To update Mozilla Firefox, just access the menu

Settings

, and in the section General,

wait for the automatic update to install. It is necessary to restart the browser after the process is completed.
