Security protocols, as you call them, have nothing nothing whatsoever
to do with that javascript-infused presentation mish-mash that is intended
to enhance the user "experience."

I have built web sites that involved the secure exchange of information and
the crypto back end is the same as it has been for decades.

It's the javascript manipulation of the DOM and whatever else these script
monkeys do to dazzle the visitor that will break Palemoon.

Palemoon is a great effort that brings an alternative browser to a world
dominated almost entirely by Google.  For this reason everyone should use
and support it.

When I browse I use only the Palemoon/"Links -g" combination.  It is
amazing to experience "links -g" and see those pages load almost
instantaneously.  Without javascipt the web returns to its glory years.

I repeat the obvious: the web and not Palemoon is the problem.
