[philipp]
- malware-induced startup crash with chtbrkg.dll https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1290403 spiking again since yesterday
- module can't be blocklisted because it's a LSP & that would break connectivity
- maybe it would be helpful to mass-mail affected users in situations like this
- crash in adapt_probs (related to vp9 playback, youtube) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1293996 rising in this release (0.5% of all crashes)
