It would sound like an advertisement though, so in some way it’s better they don’t mention it

- foldr 5mo agoIt’s better to hide conflicts of interest? (Edit: I don’t disagree with Mozilla’s position, but failure to declare an obvious conflict of interest undermines their credibility.)
- Izmaki 5mo agoBy your logic it's also better if Ray-Ban and Oakley don't publicly state that UV light is dangerous and that people should use sunglasses if outside. That sounds silly.
- foldr 5mo agoI said that they should have declared the conflict of interest, not that they shouldn't have made the statement.
- Forgeties79 5mo agoIt’s in the document they link pretty early on. You can argue they could make it more obvious in the blog I guess but that’s flimsy IMO and calling it hidden isn’t accurate
- foldr 5mo agoFair enough. Yes, it is in the linked document. I agree that's sufficient. I was responding to people suggesting that Mozilla didn't need to declare this at all.
- Forgeties79 5mo agoAll good. I also tuned down my language a little bit there, that came off as a little harsh and lecturing, sorry about that
