Adding ads, unannounced, and purposely placing them where they know people will accidentally open them due to muscle memory is some absolute user-hostile garbag

Adding ads, unannounced, and purposely placing them where they know people will accidentally open them due to muscle memory is some absolute user-hostile garbage. They know exactly what they are doing. More importantly, it's not just ads. This is another example in a long line of conveniently whoops-didn't-mean-to thumbs in the eyes of users. Mozilla has this weird split-brain, one step forward two steps back mentality when it comes to building and fighting for their users. It's exhausting to see this pattern play out over and over, so it absolutely makes sense that people will eventually get fed up with it and stop donating.
