Great question.

As a data point, Purism has worked on USA supply chain for their cell phone (Librem 5), and currently ships with mixed-origin parts. "We use US companies with US fabrication whenever possible. Most distributors are based in the US with the exception of large integrated circuits that are made in a variety of countries where those companies do fabrication (US, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan); an example is the NXP CPU we use from their fabrication in South Korea." <https://puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/#table-of-origin>


WASHINGTON, March 23, 2026—Today, the Federal Communications Commission updated its Covered List to include all consumer-grade routers produced in foreign countries. Routers are the boxes in every home that connect computers, phones, and smart devices to the internet. This followed a determination by a White House-convened Executive Branch interagency body with appropriate national security expertise that such routers “pose unacceptable risks to the national security of the United States or the safety and security of United States persons.”

MJ is awesome, but I recently discovered this another treasure trove of a YT channel that has only 5k subscribers and covers topics MJ has less focus on, like reverse engineering or surfaces: https://www.youtube.com/@DuyQuangDang/videos


Run this by your attorney.


Well, if you are able to pre-configure “site X” and “container Y” then this plugin may help: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dashbox/

It implements a batch URL open, rather than ad-hoc link open


I’m moving away from software and cloud solutions, and have selected a local accountant to prepare my filings.


I have been using multi-account containers to separate browser cookie sessions, and have been looking for a way to open collections of links in a single click.

This workflow is particularly useful to me after a fresh start of the browser (beginning of the day, or after a crash) to quickly open the web pages I use for work

My plug-in "DashBox" implements opening sets of links into separate "Multi-Account Containers" to isolate cookie sessions. This leverages the "Multi-Account Containers" Firefox plugin from Mozilla [1]

It is useful for me, and I am sharing it so it may be useful for others

Alternatives may be:

- Chrome browser: separate profiles, use the "Settings -> On Startup -> Open a specific page or set of pages"

- Firefox browser: separate profiles, use the "Settings -> Home -> Homepage and new windows" setting to "Custom URLs" and provide multiple URL's there
