Libre forks

Since the Firefox brand is copyrighted by the Mozilla Foundation, there exist forks created to remove those copyrighted assets and replace them with free/libre ones.

• GNU IceCat is a fork mantainer by the GNU Project. Beside replacing the copyrighted bits, IceCat add some small security/privacy features, and host a list of addons that are released under a free license.
• IceWeasel is the fork mantained by the Debian Project. It's created to fit more the Debian philosofy of backporting, instead of updating to a newer version.
