Mozilla Drops Onerep After CEO Admits to Running People-Search Networks

“……Onerep’s Belarusian CEO…..”

Good, but I still cancelled my monitor subscription and I'll just go back to doing it manually.

I'll be interested to see how seamless Mozilla is able to make the transition away from Onerep for users. I've been subscribed to Mozilla Monitor for a bit over a month, and the service has been decent enough for what it is. I know a bunch of people dropped their subscriptions when the original story dropped, but I'm probably going to stick it out just to see how it goes.

Already kinda saw the expense of Mozilla Monitor as mostly an investment in Mozilla's financial independence anyway, while getting something out of it for myself in the process. And while they absolutely should have done better vetting, not exactly sure I trust the alternatives that much more. Considering Incogni is owned by Surfshark which is owned by Nord. Both Incogni and DeleteMe sure buy a lot of YouTube sponsor spots - not that that necessarily means anything, but I find it's best to be skeptical of the companies that go full on squarespace with YouTube sponsorships.
