As has been mentioned elsewhere, only about 10 or so people in entire Mozilla organisation opposed Eich.

The pretext for my leaving Mozilla was the outrage/status-display campaign, even if that can't possibly explain all the facts.

So I'd guess he's probably not happy about social injustice warriors boycotting Mozilla on his behalf.

Nobody on the Mozilla board cited Eich's politics as an issue.

Get yourself connected to freenode.net, irc.mozilla.org and irc.oftc.net to start with.

So you're calling Brendan Eich and the Mozilla board liars.

It was Brendan’s idea to resign, and in fact, once he submitted his resignation, Board members tried to get Brendan to stay at Mozilla in another C-level role.

I doubt Brendan intended for you to stop using Mozilla Firefox to avenge his resignation, which he did voluntarily against the wishes of the board.

I read a better explanation on a mozilla mailing list once, but the key point is that it tries /really/ hard not to disclose private data.

I agree and will say that I'm as pleasantly surprised by the review process Mozilla has for its add-ons -- as I am dismayed that Chrome has no equivalent process.

Have any of them made any statements that support your accusations that they lied, or are you just making up those accusations yourself, or parroting someone else's accusations that Brendan Eich and the Mozilla board are liars?

Let's start with your "Mozilla disliked Dart", full of personalizing words that obfuscate the objective arguments.

Hey Brendan Eich: this guy "notsony" just called you and the Mozilla board liars, and claimed that Mozilla forced you out by "creating a hostile work environment" -- care to chime in to support or deny his accusation?

My "homophobia" (the Greek roots make no sense) justifies nothing in what you think was the just-desserts outcome at Mozilla, even if your school-child Marxoid morality tale version of that event were accurate (and it's not).

But clearly, throw any sort of system that wants to make money into the mix, coupled with the fact that users just refuse to pay for software anymore, and every giganto corp from Mozilla to Canonical are going to independently come to the same conclusion of collecting this sort of data." Making money from either advertising or additional services are definitely incentives.

Mozilla Firefox ships as the default browser with almost every Linux distro.

Mozilla will let me install a new version of Firefox, but Microsoft won't let me install a new version of IE or let me patch an old version of IE.

Unless decent standards for publishers are put in place like Mozilla's Subscribe2Web, or hosting and domain renewals become free, then we are stuck with that business model.
