Is Firefox about to get a new logo? Mozilla’s socials suggest so

Some (not exactly subtle) changes on Firefox’s official social media accounts indicate that the browser is about to get a new logo – or a reputation for attention seeking. Avatars on the browser’s official social media accounts have changed from the familiar Firefox logo to an empty purple ‘globe’, which is the center of the normal logo, but without an orange, flamed-tailed fox wrapped around.
