	Hmmm... I get

[btth@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa |grep -i iridium
iridium-browser-62.0-1.fc27.x86_64
[btth@localhost ~]$ which iridium
/usr/bin/which: no iridium in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/
sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/btth/.local/bin:/home/btth/bin)
[btth@localhost ~]$

but I'm not clear what that tells me. Maybe that I did install it with 
dnf after all?? If it actually came out of the Fedora shop, that makes 
heavy odds the pestiferous code was in qutebrowser. Would it then be 
feasible to cleanse the malware out of that, and re-install it clean? It 
did seem like a nice little suite of code ....
