Firefox 3.5 was released today by Mozilla; the final release is identical to the third release candidate if you've already installed that. 3.5 boasts of a new, fast Javascript JIT, support for several parts of HTML 5 including <video> and <audio>, improved CSS support including @font-face, improved privacy options, and better control over the Awesomebar, including the possibility of limiting it to search only URLs from history, plus plenty of performance improvements and bugfixes.

U.S. District Judge Victor Marrero ruled in favor of the ACLU and struck down a portion of the revised USA PATRIOT Act this morning, forcing investigators to go through the courts to obtain approval before ordering ISPs to give up information on customers, instead of just sending them a National Security Letter. In the words of Judge Marrero, this use of National Security Letters "offends the fundamental constitutional principles of checks and balances and separation of powers."

According to the Mozilla Developer Center, Firefox 2 Release Candidate 2 is available for download. This looks like it could be the final release candidate, and offers a tweaked UI and improved stability over RC1, plus, of course, all the new in Firefox 2.0 features.
