There is no language on this planet that could accurately express how much I fucking hate the Mozilla Foundation. They have the only mainstream (sort of) browser that isn't based on Chromium and does what I need, but instead of focusing on developing it, they just wave their girldicks in everyone's faces and do their best to kill the whole project.
It's likely because the group was compromised. No different than how James O'Keefe got kicked out of his own company by people from within. It's pretty common for companies to be attacked and destroyed from within by competitors. The fact Mozilla went full-woke to me indicates they were trying to sink the company. Sometimes it can be from utter incompetence but I wouldn't be shocked if there's some bad actors involved also.
Of course it was. The original CEO co-founder, Brendan Eich (curse his name for inventing fucking JavaScript!) got run out of the company over a political donation, and it's been downhill since then.
“Approximately 83% and 86% of Mozilla’s revenues from customers with contracts were derived from one customer for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Receivables from that one customer represented 69% and 73% of the December 31, 2021 and 2020 outstanding receivables, respectively.”
In other words: The vast majority (roughly 70%) of all of Mozilla’s yearly revenue comes from default search engine placement of just one customer.
That customer, while not named in the report, is obviously Google (and parent company, Alphabet).
So Mozilla is nearly a subsidiary of Google, and exists primarily to push Alphabet's social agenda ('organizing' and 'activism' account for 4x more expenditures than software development).
From their LinkedIn page, Mckensie Mack Group describes itself thusly: “Black-led and nonbinary-led, MMG is a global social justice organization”.
Action Research Collaborative [...] founder, Neil Lewis Jr., appears to have focused his career on “vaccine acceptance”, problems with “white” people, and his theory that “white people” can not be victims of discrimination.
It is starting to look like Mozilla is a billion dollar anti-trust insurance bond against the possibility of the Feds deciding that Chrome's position is monopolistic (90% plus looks fairly monopolistic as-is...).
With the 70%+ reliance on Google (a competitor) for revenue, why is Mozilla spending money on projects that have no goal of being profitable (and have no relation to their core business)?
What happens when the Google funding goes away? Mozilla appears certain that it never will (based on their spending)…. why is that?
Nah, anti-trust lawsuits only happen to scare companies into giving the government a cut of the profits. There's a reason that Microsoft hasn't had their head cracked open and it's called "lobbying".
I highly recommend reading "Antitrust and Monopoly: Anatomy of a Policy Failure" by Dominick T. Armentano to cure yourself of that brain rot.

They also support "more than deplatforming" so it's strange they are against Google's WEI.
Also they are part of the group that is monitoring and archiving all "far right" activity on alt tech, including this very forum.

Holy shit, I thought you were talking about Guybrush Threepwood's voice actor for a moment (Dominic Armato)
Sounds like a good read though, thanks.
