Having observed the trajectory of Mozilla since the Internet Explorer days, I am saddened and reminded of Pournelle's Iron Law of Bureaucracy[1], which seems especially apt here. While Mozilla has become increasingly irrelevant in the eyes of its users and fans, apparently it is still quite lucrative for those at the center of its bureaucracy[2]. What's extra sad is that Firefox is clearly a valuable public good, which seems fated to go down with the rest of this rotten ship.
