Mull, DEPRECATED SEE THE MULL-FENIX REPO

Overview

Mull is kinda sorta Tor Browser Android, but without routing over Tor network and upstream Firefox. It enables many features upstreamed by the Tor Uplift project through @arkenfox and @pyllyukko's user.js projects. It was originally created as builds of the patchset from bug 1419581.

Deprecation Notice

Fennec (Firefox for Android) is completely deprecated and ESR 68.12 is the final version. Fenix is the replacement and mull-fenix is available.
