The article is about them cutting ties with the company after finding out the CEO of the partner company was doing something bad for privacy. Mozilla, as far as we know at this point, isn’t guilty of anything bad except maybe not thoroughly digging into the CEO of this other company’s past thoroughly enough. Mozilla was not profiting off of selling your data. They’re not even sure if the other company was directly using their “privacy” service to benefit the CEO’s data harvesting company, just that he had been doing data harvesting, and then started a “privacy” company to remove data from the data aggregating sites, like the exact ones he funded.
So, are you sure you’re clear on what happened? Because Mozilla rectified an oversight on their part after they discovered a partner company’s executive had ties to the exact industry they were supposed to be fighting.
Explains why no matter what it will be down voted here. People simp for a company who has the majority of all profits from a company they hate, and call them legit.
But it’s okay, I kinda like the downvote game here and pissing off the extremists who baby raged on over after Reddit’s API change.
Arc is the first company actually innovating in the browser space in two decades and I’ll happily accept that work being done on top of an open-source base that Google doesn’t control that much.
open-source base that Google doesn’t control that much.
I was with you until that statement. My interactions with people who work with Chromium’s code a lot, and with maintainers of open-source projects that use that code (like LineageOS), has given me a very different impression.
(The downvotes aren’t from me, though. I don’t think they’re a useful way to express disagreement.)
Youre so cool and edgy.

Am I? For ditching a product that sold out my personal info by using a paid-for service designed to protect my privacy?
I gave Mozilla their chance and they pulled this shit.

Freedom of choice… How is that edgy?
I think it was a pun. Arc is built on the same engine as Edge.
So built on chromium?

Yep, built on Chromium.
