Whoa whoa. Let’s pick up the build of Mozilla’s ditched namesake and confirm a future there, and then maybe consider their next discard. Wait; who’s got tbird? Can we rescue that first? Get their trash in ‘tip’ order, anyway.

This is surely a smokescreen for Google’s monopolization of Internet standards.
And even if weren’t, I cannot emphasize enough how much that list of companies should also NOT be in charge of setting open standards. Oligopoly, monopoly with the illusion of choice…

I could be wrong, but I think that (at least to some extent) the Linux Foundation exists to be the more corporate-friendly face of
Free SoftwareOpen Source, as a reaction against/in opposition to the hard-line “end-user freedom” stance taken by GNU/the FSF. If that’s accurate, it doesn’t surprise me that it would take a soft position regarding Google’s monopolistic practices. Especially since Google is a gold member of it.Aren’t a good portion of contributors to the Linux kernel also employees of the major FAANG companies?
So the Linux Foundation is in Google’s pocket. Good to know,
That’s a pretty unfair kneejerk without receipts.
