When vice-presidents of Mozilla were asked, along the years since it was signed, what was the exact content of the contract signed with Google, all of them answered “I don’t know. I havent read it.”

Who in the world read the contract Mozilla and Google signed together?

Who has a single clue of what has been in there? And subsequently how can we trust Mozilla in such conditions? How didn’t it doom itself to never be in a position to compete meaningfully with Chrome, buying itself time and/or a comfortable mattress of $$$?

Who can tell the Google+Mozilla contract DOESNT contain the following:

  • Firefox shall never include adblock technology as a default
  • Firefox shall always “feel lucky” with Google
  • Firefox shall always “phone home” to Google with “safe browsing” etc.

How can we know the billion $$$ of Google didnt serve to make sure that Firefox would never be the browser that th people actually need to protect themselves against… Google?

    I let this stand because the user does not claim anything here, he asks about transparency between the contract from Google and Mozilla. He clearly indicates this with lots of question marks.

    He does not claim anything. He asks questions. This is legitimate and not against community rules. Conspiracy is not when someone legitimate ask questions, conspiracy also needs minimum 3-5 people, per definition.

    If someone leaks the full contract or has insights please post your findings in here, otherwise this remains how it is.

    Please do not abuse report function.

    Thanks.

      Wtf, I immediately reported this as soon as I saw it because “Joe Bidet” is obviously a troll. Your own rules for this community forbid trolling, hate and conspircy theories.

        User names only do not existentially reflect trolling.

        I do not ban people because user names unless it is offensive, sexual, racist. That would be mod abuse.

          Ok, I just read the drama thread and idk if I want to contribute to that, but I still think this is a bad trolling attempt and that’s not based on the name only. It’s pretty clear why google is keeping mozilla alive and this thread is some conspiracy bullshit you would find in a brave or vivaldi forum.
