[dgplug-users] Update related to Meltdown and Spectre

[Kushal Das]

Hi,

I hope everyone already read about the recently published CPU issues[0].
Fedora has an updated kernel. But, not all details about bugs are yet
known.  Mozilla already published a blog post[1] about the JS based
attacks.

For now, make sure that you have all the packages in your Operating
System updated. For the browsers, there are settings available to make
site level isolation.

### Chrome/Chromium

chrome://flags/#enable-site-per-process

Next to 'Strict site isolation', click Enable then relaunch browser.

### Firefox

about:config?filter=privacy.firstparty.isolate

Double-click on `privacy.firstparty.isolate` to set the preference to
true. Restart the browser after that.
