I removed Pale Moon from my computer, and made the following
shellscript called palemoon:

===========================================
#!/bin/sh
fout=`mktemp`

echo $fout

echo 'echo ' > $fout
echo 'echo ' >> $fout
echo
echo 'echo This is a shellscript filenamed "palemoon",' >> $fout
echo 'echo not the browser called "Pale Moon"' >> $fout
echo 'echo from https://www.palemoon.org/.' >> $fout
echo 'echo ' >> $fout
echo 'echo Pale Moon browser was removed from this system' >> $fout
echo "echo because of Pale Moon project personnel\'s antagonism" >>
$fout 
echo 'echo and implied threats at:' >> $fout
echo 'echo https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/issues/86' >> $fout
echo 'echo ' >> $fout
echo 'echo Please use another browser' >> $fout
echo 'echo And change default browser for programs calling this.' >>
$fout 
echo 'echo ' >> $fout
echo 'echo  Please press Enter after reading.' >> $fout
echo 'read junk' >> $fout
echo "rm $fout" >> $fout
chmod a+x $fout
exec xterm -e $fout
===========================================

Seriously, check out https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/issues/86
and then contemplate whether this is the kind of project you'd want to
be associated with, even as just a user.
