Do you trust saving CC numbers in Firefox? (feddit.it)

I'm just scared that they're saved with reversible encryption on the disk, then malware could steal them

Temporary card numbers are awesome. Some CC providers give you one, otherwise you can use a service like privacy.com. You can also pay for things in crypto and keep only a limited amount of crypto in your browser-based wallet or do multi-sig so you have to approve transactions from two different devices. This can help minimize loss from an attack.
