Mozilla adds all recent Java versions to blocklist

Seeing as we all love Java /sarcasm, Mozilla has recently added the latest update (version 7 update 15 at the time of writing) to it’s add-on blocklist. They’ve been blocking Java for quite some time but only insecure past versions.

Recently, all versions were added to the blocklist which are blocked on loading the browser but can be re-enabled afterwards by the user. A guide to update and remove old Java versions from your system is also available.

The Mozilla plug-in check system is also available across Firefox and Chromium (That I have tested it in).
