We don't ban tools just because they could be put to good and bad uses. Then you may as well ban the Internet entirely because cyber-crimes commited over the Internet is now a multi-billion dollar business.

You're right because there are alternatives. There was a time when the alternatives were more expansive than Refox. For a while I was concerned about Refox. But now I don't care about Refox because I know that my app is secured from it. As for the hackers I don't see how they could be stopped.
