And yes, Meta is the company that Mozilla has decided to work with on an in-browser ad tracking feature.
The appeal to Meta is obvious—cut off pro-democracy sites from ad revenue—but I'm still not understanding the decision-making process that got Mozilla into it
@dmarti yeah ... have the Head of Firefox (a former Meta employee), Firefox' SVP of New Products (a former Meta employee), and Firefox' Chief Business Officer (a former Meta employee) communicated anything about why they decided to work with Meta on this?
Oct 26, 2026, 5:11 AM@dmarti Should it really come much of a surprise how Mozilla had been slowly taken over by Tech Bro fascists, given the fact they've went in on the AI hype.
@Alkaris yes, they chase a lot of fads, but somehow never quickly enough to avoid buying in at the top
Oct 26, 2026, 5:14 AM@dmarti My suspicion is that the appeal is the usual one.
@dmarti ...the decision-making process that got Mozilla into it >>> 💰 💰 💰
@dmarti Man Mozilla too? Such a turn for the worse. I don’t like using anything Chromium. Whats left? And what’s left with working ad blockers on YT?
