Mozilla has 1.4 BILLION dollars that they are spending on some AI bullshit.

That's billion with a B. So if you held out hope that filling out surveys or shitposting through it might turn this ship around, no. That much money has an event horizon.

Mozilla is cooked.

Meanwhile the AI companies are burning the planet to build browsers from scratch as a benchmark.

This is how we all lose.

My read is that Google—Mozilla's main funding source these days—have *ordered* them to spend money on AI (meanwhile supplying the money to do so). No mainstream browser may remain uncompromised by the grift. amirite?

We all need to remember where Google's money comes from... #PrinceBonesaw and Chris Hohn.

We need more reporting on why the fossil fuel industry is suddenly so desperate to get AI into every aspect of tech & everyone's personal life

Browsers, robots, vehicles, farm tractors, home appliances, laptops, cloud services, IOT medical devices, news, content creation...
