I agree.

Okay, then it shouldn't exist. That's not an excuse.
- noirscape 2y agoThe irony is that if Mozilla had just taken the search deal money over the past decade and a half and quietly kept it away in a rainy day fund instead of wasting it all on ideas that mostly didn't go anywhere or reinvented the wheel from existing projects, they probably would be just fine for the rest of their lifetimes. The only reason they're looking for unethical funding is because a. Mozilla has grown so bloated beyond it's original purpose that they have ludicrous operating demands and b. because they have a bunch of MBA types in charge who can only think up the most unethical schemes you can think of to make money.
