  • I won't trust the AI Mozilla uses until they show us the source data. Not the source code that consumes a massive binary blob; the stuff that generated the binary blob they are using.

  • The language is confusing, and Mozilla should fix it themselves.

    The important takeaway is: data is sent over an IP address controlled by Google, to a remote server, running Google software. No processing is taking place on someone's local computer.

  • If Mozilla is engaging in unethical behavior that publicly violates its own alleged principles, people can point it out.

    But sure, here are a few suggestions:

    1. Continue finding white label services they can sell, such as Mozilla VPN
    2. Create a donation system using GNU Taler that you can put towards websites you visit, like brave Rewards already has.
    3. Allow users to give donations explicitly to Firefox development instead of Mozilla itself.
    4. End the $65 million in donations towards AI.
    5. Follow typical market forces and lower the CEO pay instead of raising it by nearly $2 million.

  • The fact that Mozilla is not as evil as Google (yet) is only so good, though. If they continue in this downward trajectory, they might eventually put out a browser worse than Chrome, and if that becomes the case... I guess so.

    If Mozilla is hemorrhaging money, then maybe they should plug the $65 million in donations towards AI and venture capital firms. Maybe they should lower the CEO salary, which is what happens in general to CEO salaries when markets underperform... Instead of raising it by nearly $2 million.
