Automatic Updates and Forced Browser Restarts are a bad idea. They can interrupt the browsing experience, and can cause people to lose a lot of text if they are in the process of composing a piece of written work - be that an email or a post on a website or a submission to an online writing challenge or something else - due to automatic updates that start without their permission and then force a browser restart automatically, without giving them a warning they can actually use to save whatever it is they're working on BEFORE Firefox decides to reboot.
This was a bad idea for MicroSoft Windows, and it's a bad idea for Mozilla Firefox.
