The SJW nonsense associated with Mozilla ownership doesn’t bother you?

Why would something like that bother anyone?

If they provide exactly what you want,who cares?

If my airline pilot and surgeon do a good job I don’t give a damn what their politics are.

I don’t like supporting corporations with whose political policies I disagree. Alas, nearly all establishment corporations fall into that category (some have merely made them more conspicuous than others). I myself am not paying any money to Mozilla, though, and I don’t really see how I’m helping them make money.

I suppose the stats which show browser, obtainable every time a site is accessed, do help them, but how do they make their money? I’m not giving it to them.

Funding is the make or break influence for many of the worst of socio-political efforts, and some browsers do help to funnel big money into particular kinds of NGOs. If a particular kind of NGO gets enough funding, it can be very influential in politics with a monopoly over availability of information for people who use the Web and in other ways.

Many sites publishing traditional, conservative information or clean, reasonable, free discussion may be relegated to the so-called Dark Web before long because of pressure from left-leaning NGOs. It's already bad enough with what some of the most popular search engines do.

Here's a site with great resources for people who want to learn about browser security. The material is easy to read, easy to understand and concise.

Another thing... Lazy, intrusive or malicious Web developers tend to favor Javascript too much. Web developers should explore and practice with CSS to the fullest for great, attractive, fast-loading web pages before doing much of anything else.
