Why was this not done in the first place?
- callahad 9y agoI'm not personally aware of the answer to that question, but I expect it will be covered in a postmortem in the coming days.
- amenod 9y agoI am anxiously waiting for the postmortem. As others have written, this is not a first such incident that goes against (perceived) core values of Mozilla. Either you need to pull your act together and change the process that leads to such decisions or you need to come clean (and admit that you are selling out your users for profit, the way Google does). Well, you can also ignore the situation and public will understand that you chose the latter... If you do decide to come clean, it would help a lot if you gave assurances about what you have learned and how you will change the process so that this doesn't happen again. Trust is difficult to gain and easy to lose. I must say I am sorry to see all this happening though. I have always hated Chrome (a bit less than IE, but for other reasons) and am (still) your loyal user. I even enabled telemetrics recently (which means _a lot_ - there is no other piece of software that gets this willingly from me) - needless to say, they are turned off again. We'll see how the postmortem turns out.
