For what its worth, pinning the certificate can usually remediate

Maybe I'm not sufficiently caffienated, but that link doesn't seem to
mention Mozilla at all, much less anything they did to "subvert" pinning.
(Note that I don't consider "doesn't happen to support the feature yet"
as "subversion" - that requires an active decision to take some action
that undermines the feature)
