Nice try, fed.

It's impressive. Any other country in the world that was bombing two (2) (Dos) countries at a time nowadays would get hell of flack.
But not the 21st century Nazis, not them!
Talking news and sharing links? There's lemmy for that!
No hope, no cope. Just a basic understanding on how the HTTP infrastructure and time dilation work.
You can have one or two execs, as a treat; but certainly they don't need to be paid crazy figures like what has been the case with Mozilla as of late. It's not like they're that important, in particular for the kind of project something like Firefox is (which could do with eg.: coop governance).
Okay, but what if after all this legal action Mozilla decides that it’s no longer worth serving the privacy conscious crowd? Which browser will you use then?
Firefox.
Just because the execs decide to stop serving the software, doesn't mean the copies (and source code!) already out in the wild will automagickally stop functioning. You'll still be able to visit websites the day after, the month after, the year after... And there's still the devs, since they're not the execs.
By the time there's issues, there'll still be the forks. Someone will have already step up to fork and keep the work on their own, too; the name just weighs enough that someone will want to be "the next Firefox" (not "the next Mozilla"). Or even better, the devs (obvs not the execs) will have jumped ship into any one of the various alternative projects such as ladybird, or might even have started a new project from scratch, hopefully intending for it to be a leaner and better browsr.
Nothing screams "capitalism!" louder than a geofencing over Anne Frank of all things.
Lemme see, US good, China bad?
Eh, I don’t know if it was illegitimate or not considering he allowed abuse to carry on on the platform for years and due to no encryption it was well known about.
Knife makers absolutely know people are using their tools to commit crimes, up to and even murder. Are they going to be held up until they do Something(TM) about it?
NOYB would’ve done much better by talking to Mozilla directly and advocating for them to do the right thing going for a legal complaint as the final nuclear option. I
It has been already vastly demonstrated by Mozilla, that going to them and talking to them about how they shouldn't do shitty things doesn't work.
If it takes legal action to even try and save the browser, I'm all for it.
It is now o3o
