That has to hurt deeply. It was his baby. Now it’s his Frankenstein. If I was Mr. Eich, I would be struggling not to seek revenge by designing an extraordinarily destructive and contagious type of malware or virus that would be spread with each and every use of the Firefox Browser. I’m sure I could’nt do it. I would hire somebody in Switzerland to conduct a little ‘experiement’, then lo and behold, Ka-Bloo-ee!!
He also invented JavaScript, which runs the whole of the web, client-side, not just Firefox, and with no viable competitor.
