Mozilla hit with lawsuit from former Chief Product Officer

https://archive.org/details/jyjfub/mode/1up?view=theater

> In September 2023, Steve Teixeira was the respected and successful Chief Product Officer of Mozilla Corporation and poised to become Mozilla Corporation’s next CEO. But on October 3, 2023, he was diagnosed with ocular melanoma and soon went on a 90 day medical leave for treatment. Immediately upon his return, Mozilla campaigned to demote or terminate Mr. Teixeira citing groundless concerns and assumptions about his capabilities as an individual living with cancer. Interim Chief Executive Officer Laura Chambers and Chief People Officer Dani Chehak were clear with Mr. Teixeira: he could not continue as Chief Product Officer and could not continue as a Mozilia employee in any capacity beyond 2024—because of his diagnosis. When Mr. Teixeira opposed this discriminatory action, Mozilla responded by unilaterally placing him on indefinite administrative leave, effectively disappearing both Mr. Teixeira and his complaints of discrimination. Mozilla has discriminated and retaliated against Mr. Teixeira in violation of the Washington Law Against Discrimination. Mozilla has also unlawfully shared his personal health information, and unlawfully sought to gag his speech about illegal discrimination and retaliation.

Can I edit .docx files without a Microsoft 365 subscription and if not are there any alternatives
  • My Microsoft 365 subscription is expiring and will not be renewed thanks to you lovely people getting me on the Proton family of software and obsidian for note taking.

    I mean... Why would you ditch a service you evidently NEED just because some stranger on the internet told you so?

    That said, there's plenty of offline programs that can work on .dock files, such as OnlyOffice and LIbreoffice (with varying degrees of compatibility with existing files). Good luck!

  • It's odd to me how this articleis being silenced/removed or downplayed by the entire tech community. It looks like people sinerely believe tha Mozilla can't do no wrong or that Mozilla is above any judgment while other entities are being systematically (and hypocritically) attacked for personal matters (e.g., Brave's CEO).

    Firefox Money: Investigating the bizarre finances of Mozilla

    The author may be a right-wing fellow. Nonetheless, the data he exposes are taken from official Mozilla docs.

    Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser
  • Mozilla, Thunderbird, and/or the EFF,

    Do you know that donation to Mozilla don't (and can't legally) fund Firefox development, right? (opposite to what happens for Thunderbird, actually).

    But, hey, you can guarantee Mozilla's CEO a better retirement:

    Thus, your money are better spent donating to Thunderbird or EFF or whatever other foundation that does something actually useful.

  • Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser
  • I won't prevent anyone from using FF, either. I just think that the "obligatory use Firefox" is quite arrogant, to say the least. And, to be honest, I'm quite happy it's not going to happen until FF is managed by Mozilla and their poor choices.

  • Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser
  • Moreover, Firefox’s UI is incomparably superior to that of Chrome.

    No. It's crap. Utter crap.

    without considering the infinite userchrome.css customisations.

    "Unsupported" and surely an incentive for less tech-savvy people to look elewhere. But whatever. I' won't bother to reply to anything else, as you're statistically one of these persons that spend their life watching crappy youtube videos and buying shit on Amazon.

  • Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser
  • Someone just insulted me and called me "alt-right" person or "crypto bro" (I'm neither of both). So, do you really think that I'm the pathetic one?

    And... Which "claims", by the way? I just said that I'm annoyed by people telling me "I should" do something and that I'll decide by myself. Full stop. Coherently, I'm not giving you alternatives nor have I to disclose anything.

    Sometimes it looks like one has to apologize for using Brave or Vivaldi or any other shit that didn't come out from Mozilla's ass. Keep using FF if this makes you happy. It made me happy for 20 years, but then I got fed up by 1) Mozilla, 2) Mozilla's community 3) The browser itself.

    Don't worry. One day Mozillians will receive a reality bath and realise the farce they have supported.

  • Google engineers want to introduce DRMs for web pages, making ad-blocking near-impossible in the browser
  • that is a funny graph. Even assuming the data is true, it deliberately missrepresents market share as usage. Which pretty much neglects the fact hat maybe a person or two and a device with a browser or two have entered the market since then.

    Fine, so on the same basis we can also reject the "chromium dominance" argument, which is the main selling point of Mozilla.
