Mozilla drives out its CEO because he contributed $1000 to support a particular law in 2008 . Then it claims it values diversity. We all know that censors like Mozilla have NO place on the Internet --so PLEASE BOYCOTT MOZILLA --please fight for what little freedom we still have to hold differing views.

Any article you saw that claims he was forced to resign or fired by the Mozilla board is incorrect as Brendan made the choice to step down for Mozilla and the Mozilla community.


Our organizational culture reflects diversity and inclusiveness. We welcome contributions from everyone regardless of age, culture, ethnicity, gender, gender-identity, language, race, sexual orientation, geographical location and religious views. Mozilla supports equality for all. We have employees with a wide diversity of views. Our culture of openness extends to encouraging staff and community to share their beliefs and opinions in public. This is meant to distinguish Mozilla from most organizations and hold us to a higher standard. We absolutely believe both in equality and freedom of speech. Sometimes standing for both at the same time can be hard. A CEO needs to be able to lead, and under the circumstances in the last week with the scrutiny over this issue, Brendan made a personal choice to step down from the role.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I would also like to share with you Mitchell Baker's blog post on this subject and hope that you will take this into account in your decision about which browser to use: https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/04/03/brendan-eich-steps-down-as-mozilla-ceo/"
