(and thanks for doing this!)

Patches are from the camoufox project not me. And yes at some point I will allow using distro provided camoufox.

Fabulous, thank you! (And yes, Camoufox updates frequently, but honestly keeping up to date with rapidly changing stuff is something some distros actually *are* good at, and if you're using one of those... it's definitely not something Debian Stable users should do though.)

Absent IP address rotation I suspect it might not be a viable long-term solution.
