@igb some highlights of mozilla from past year:

1. https://www.techradar.com/computing/cyber-security/mozilla-stands-by-its-controversial-privacy-feature-but-ready-to-clear-up-confusion
2. https://www.theregister.com/2024/06/24/mozilla_product_chief_sues_over/
3. https://www.theregister.com/2024/06/18/mozilla_buys_anonym_betting_privacy/

I don't get how Jack was any worse.

@fosdem_countdown @igb And most of the visitors are from multi-billion companies such as... Netflix :D What a hypocrisy. Send the middlemen, right? I don't even know that much about the guy but this type of corrupted moral and ethics make me sick.

Personally, I'd let both Mozilla's CEO and Jack to speak but perhaps the audience at FOSDEM is easily brainwashed, right? I could not know because personally I don't pay attention keynotes in the first place.

It's a double standard by definition.

@fosdem_countdown @igb Also: even Netflix is essentially closed source platform. Yes, there are open source tools but I cannot download the full source code of Netflix. So please stop bitching. You are developing a proprietary product.

Maybe I'm a fool but personally I think that this thing called "integrity" is at the core of open source. Do as you say. LITERALLY.
