cannot install the addon (permission denied on the server #39

I've tried to install this firefox addon - clicking the link on FreeSpeechMe website https://dot-bit.org/files/FreeSpeechMe.xpi but I ended up with error: Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /files/FreeSpeechMe.xpi on this server. Apache/2.2.22 (Debian) Server at dot-bit.org Port 443

Probably some bad permission on a directory of the apache server where the addon - the .xpi file is placed.

Hi,

Unfortunately FreeSpeechMe doesn't work on current versions of Firefox, because Mozilla removed the API's that we used. We're hoping to release something new to replace it fairly soon. So, fixing the permissions on dot-bit.org is kind of a low priority, since the file won't work anyway.

Thanks.
