I'm feeling this is well-meaning but really misguided, in multiple ways.

Mostly context-free. I'm guessing they're targeting mostly non-technical, retail consumers. Which is fine, but raises a number of other questions. Like, why is Mozilla especially well-positioned to review consumer electronics? And why are random consumers going to trust Mozilla?

Related, but this reinforces several bad messages about security:

- That it is an objective, scalar property of a thing,

- That "one size fits all",

- That infosec is a shopping exercise, not a process the user has to participate in.

Also, just, why? Who really thinks there's a Mozilla-shaped hole in the shopping-guide world?
