Mozilla shuts down Firefox Send and Firefox Notes services

Mozilla is shutting down Firefox Send and Firefox Notes. Firefox Send was a free encrypted file-sharing service, but it was taken offline in July after Mozilla discovered it was being used to deliver malware and conduct spear phishing attacks.

Now, the company has decided to decommission the service. Firefox Notes, meanwhile, was an encrypted data-syncing service that Mozilla will also be killing. Both the services were part of the Firefox Test Pilot program.

Mozilla announced in a blog post that Firefox Send and Firefox Notes will be decommissioned, and will no longer be part of Mozilla's product family.
