Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

Firefox uses the SI standard for base-2 units. This violates the units
policy [1].

Testcase: Open a random page in Firefox (for example, http://ubuntu.com)
and then go to Tools -> Page Info -> General -> Size. It should display
"17.91 kB (17911 bytes)" instead of "19.49 KB (17911 bytes)".
