> So, you don't trust the JS served by Mozilla but you would trust their browser?

Mozilla's browser is shipped out to everyone; their JavaScript is served to me every time I use it. A compromised browser could be caught; compromised JavaScript sent one time only to a targeted user is highly unlikely to ever be noticed.

I get my browser via a distribution; it's far less likely than Mozilla and Debian would collaborate to expose all of Debian's users' passwords than that Mozilla would target — or be compelled by law, blackmail or violence to target — a single user or handful of users.
