Since there is no direct name with this, I have no way to know if it is true, but it is what many of us suspected (forced retirement).

We must all keep circulating the name Mitchell Baker, the official who imposed her religious bigotry on CEO Brendan Eich by firing him because his religious beliefs didn’t match hers.

Mitchell Baker.

Mitchell Baker.

Expect him to be rooted out and castigated if teal.

Sooner or later, it is going to become clear to all but the most liberal or the most mentally ill (but I repeat myself) that the only way to satisfy all the demands of the Gay Mafia is to crap on the rights of just about everybody else.

Is English a second language for most Mozilla employees?

This is true and represents the feelings and thoughts of two of three very close friends of mine who work for Mozilla. Mozilla USED TO BE independent but have fallen wholly for Google as their sugar daddy, which is the biggest part of the problem with their leadership/management debacle(s).

Mozilla, as a whole, does not pull down much in the way of profits. They develop FREE software and act a pillar in the open source community. However, the open source community is starting to take notice that Mozilla is floundering, and mark my words, if Mozilla goes over fully to the dark side, the GNU community WILL retaliate by making sure Mozilla burns.

Again... boycotting because of political reasons changes NOTHING -

"After all we are Mozilla - Doing good is part of our code! And we still have not stopped to be the good guys!"

In my view, this is exactly what got Mozilla/Firefox in trouble. Taking actions they thought would be perceived as "good" without considering what MOST Americans would really think. My answer is the same...tough crap, lie in it, etc.

Same thing happened internally at Intel.
Toe the line or be forced out during review time.

That was not written by an American. Just an observation; no doubt there are many many Asians working there.

If a successful boycott of Australis/Google were waged, most would not make the connection.

If Mozilla/Firefox crashes and burns, it will be quite clear that a line in the sand has been drawn.

I urge all to ignore this posting.

Pale Moon is an off-shoot of Firefox some could try as an alternative

I don’t use Google mail or searches.

Screw them. Let them steal someone else’s personal info.

The author seems to think Google is the problem and not Mozilla. And that may be, but it was Mozilla’s board that accepted the resignation, not Google’s. It was Mozilla’s board that apologized for appointing a traditional marriage supporter to CEO.

Mozilla should be boycotted. But maybe Google should too. More evidence of Google’s influence would be appreciated.

Before giving up Seamonkey, I would want to make sure none of the other possible browsers are anti free speech, or promoting the gay Nazis. What are the odds of that? What Mozzila did is appalling, but is it a social/political sickness that doesn’t exist at Google Chrome, Explorer, Opera...? Truth is, I’ve been with Seamonkey since the early days of Netscape. I like the mail program, the composer, the address book, my bookmarks, the way the tools work, and I hate the idea of going to something I don’t like when it would, in all likelihood, be as corrupted politically and culturally as what I would leave.

Which leads to Australis.

Have not heard one good thing about that. Similar to Windows 8 / Metro UI.

I have standardized on FF V17 / Pale Moon V19 anyway, for speed and efficiency reasons. Trying not to use the search bar.

Talk about cognitive dissonance. This essay makes zero sense. He blames google for Eich then says a political boycott will change nothing? How so? Mozilla has shown they are an intolerant anti-traditional family company and will destroy the lives of those they disagree with. Screw ‘em and let them burn. Call them Gayzilla wnd let the angry Al Queerda have it. All gay all the time.
