It’s legitimately cool that buying a new car and having any self-respect whatsoever are mutually exclusive now.
Fuck cars.
I’d rather they just focused on making the browser better to be honest. Let the EFF or another org do this type of work
Mozilla is a large umbrella foundation that includes the for-profit Mozilla Corporation. The Foundation has always done plenty of work outside of the browser. I do agree that their browser development is having a ton of issues (for example, the lack of development of key features needed for the Android browser to be competitive, like a tablet UI and the slow roll-out of add-ons), but I think those are a result of flawed decision-making in the Corporation which happened independently of anything that the Foundation might be up to.
The people who researched this topic and wrote that article are most probably not the ones working on the browser. As any company, Mozilla has departments.
I know I used to develop for it. My point was directed at the funding . The web needs a strong alternative to chrome now more than ever. Neutering projects like servo does not help. Also most non technical people don’t even know of Mozilla and anyone that does probably associates it with Firefox.
Anyway I’m downvoted for having a valid opinion. Whatever
Bob I’m going to need to look into that codec bug in Firefox. Also, how’s that car review coming along?
Damnit Bob, Firefox is still broken and we need that article on cars! Where do you think you are? Car and Driver?!? This is Mozilla, Bob! We have deadlines and if you can’t or won’t finish the editorial process while fixing the browser then you can move along to WaPo, or NYT, or Vanity Fair. Some rag outfit will take you if you cannot hack it as a hacker and investigational journalist for the MOZ!!
The more technology progresses in our ultracapitalist environment (and even some ultrasocialist ones like China), the more people are forced to become Luddite self-sustainable hermits in the middle of nowhere for their own good. It’s not even to not buy a car - even something as simple as taking a bus or a train or even a pair of shoes is poised to become a privacy nightmare sooner or later.
The car I put the most miles on (at least during the summer) doesn’t even have an ECU, so yeah you guys can have fun with all that high tech nonsense.
If you don’t have anything to hide then you don’t have anything to worry about!
So? That’s what businesses are supposed to do. Make money. You should invest in the company and then you’ll make money off of the money they make off you.
Companies typically pay their workers
I am creating the product that they sell
You realize this literally sounds like some shit a 90s comic would have had the corporate villain say, right
