Hello,
I just see, Firefox wants to acces /proc/tty/drivers and asks for PTRACE use.
Is it safe to grant this access? What are the risks connected to accessing these things? Currently Firefox seem to work well without granting these things...
I do not see why it would need it. You can always disable it and see what happens? :) ptrace is dangerous as it allows to control all other processes of the same UID.
