Why?
They sold their soul. I don't trust them farther than I can throw a fully loaded 787. On that same note, fuck Google, fuck Apple, fuck Adobe, fuck LG, I can go on forever.
Now keep down voting me, fuck those who do too. ๐คฃ
They did? That's news to me. Who did they sell it to? And what do you use instead?
^So^ ^help^ ^me^ ^God,^ ^if^ ^you^ ^say^ ^Brave^
To the devil (Google).
No, I respect myself and you too much to say Brave. Mullvad and Libres Wolf. So, the fox while unfucked without a tail.
Mozilla "sold their soul to Google"? What did I miss?

Look at the finances part: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Corporation
That's hooker behavior right there.
I agree with pretty much everything after "on that same note", except I'm not familiar with LG. What did they do?
Problematic linear compressors maybe?
Probably the privacy invasive TVs
Privacy invasive everything, forced arbitration, TOS bait and switch.,etc.
Oh, was it them that made the IoT washing machines with a nasty habit of unannounced port scans?
As far as I know, Samsung and LG both do that. But I'm guessing every manufacturer that adds wifi connectivity does the same.
