Because ShadyPanda published a malicious extension for Edge and Chrome.
Not for Firefox based browsers.
… You… can’t install an Edge or Chrome extension in a Firefox based browser.
You have to make a different version, designed for Firefox, sorta like a port of a video game; a DreamCast won’t play a PlayStation disc, an N64 won’t run a GameBoy cartridge.

It’s not that it can’t be done then, most likely no one has checked.
Buying out solo deved apps to host malware has been a thing for ages.
Yep, you could theoretically do a similar sleeper malware as extension for Firefox based browsers.
But that is not what this article is about.
No where in this article is anything about a Firefox based browser mentioned.
So, again, go back your original comment on my comment.
You tried to put a bunch of words in my mouth, now you’re trying to argue hypotheticals based on conjecture.
Are you trying to make some kind of point?
Or just waste the time of anyone bothering to read this?
My point was basically that this can happen to you too, and if it couldn’t, people would complain anyway.
No need to call people morons over it.
