@aral @fabrice @miklo @thomasfuchs Well that's sad. I was quite interested in the Small Technology Foundation until you started crapping on other foundations with similar missions.

If you can't see that Mozilla are the good guys (and believe me I have plenty of reasons to not like them) then I guess I wish you the best of luck trying to change the world on your own.

@aral @miklo @thomasfuchs Not quite. The for-profit Mozilla Corporation is a fully owned subsidiary of the non-profit Mozilla Foundation. The corporation does exist to maximise profit for its shareholders, but its only shareholder is a non-profit foundation working for the public good.

It also only has around 1,000 employees (and 10,000+ volunteers), which hardly qualifies as "big tech" today.

It is true most of its revenue comes from Google, but also does a lot to prevent tracking so 🤷♂️
