Horrible headline. Based on the contents of the article, the problem is not with open source, it's that Mozilla doesn't have a team of reviewers waiting around

  Except a team of Googlers doesn't "bless" add-ons. They may have some automated scripts, but it is pretty easy to add code to your add-on that does things that your add-on was not advertised to do (malicious or not).

  Google does not review addons. There have been occasions where extensions hosted on the chrome store were sending the URLs of all visited websites to their servers or 3rd party servers. I, as a user, much prefer the Mozilla model. Obviously it would be great if review times could be improved.
