The browser still have One option on the settings screen: clear cache. That's it.

No extensions, no block js, no block or allow sites opening new windows... No

Those options are confusing for users and can break sites and then users wonder "where is grumpy cat?" :^).
if i wanted to be dumbed down i'd use google chorme :)

now really, those options are not useless and just for confusion, and i will argue anyone who says otherwise. most options there are for usability. Yeah, for you being able to run add-ons is just a convenient way to download movies from streaming porn sites... but for me it may be a way to run stylish and use a high contrast theme so i can actually read the sites! ...and just the fact that i have to use add-ons+stylish instead of a simple user style file like most old browsers allowed is already absurd enough.
