    Also, yes Mozilla, I’m sure the reason people aren’t switching to Firefox is because it lacks good advertising support.

    100%, Google is leaning into Mozilla to make this happen.

      Since they acquiesced to pressure and included DRM in the browser Mozilla has morphed into a long con exit scam for tech grifters. I find ex mozilla dev and founder jwz pretty insufferable but he was kind of right about the company and foundation. People gave them a pass for far too long. They took the google money, built an inflated non-prof using donations, and now have like the 2nd or 3rd CEO trying to scrape what little value is left there into a golden parachute. Firefox is a really small team at Mozilla. It basically exists to collect Google money.
