POLL: Trust in Firefox and Mozilla is Gone - Let's Talk Alternatives
It’s been a long time coming, but the trust in Firefox and its mother organization, Mozilla, seems to be mostly gone, after a recent commit on the source code removed the “we don’t sell your data” promise, along with a change of Privacy notice and Terms of Use.

I'm gonna keep asking if people are going to keep posting:
Would you pay a subscription to use Firefox, and if no, what would you propose as a means of sustaining Firefox's professional development budget if they lose Google's Monopoly money?
I would, if they shit canned paying their CEO so much
I would, I was about to pay for proton before the ceo posted about liking Trump's team. I realized if I wanted privacy I needed to self host or pay for it. I'm self hosting a lot but email is just better running thru someone else I trust.
If only my taxes were put toward things we want and need instead of murdering brown people in other countries.
I see a browser as no different than other municipal services.
Public tech funds are an amazing use of tax dollars, I would love it if we had more investment in these systems!
I would like a public email where the same protections physical mail gets are applied with end to end encryption. There are a lot of internet things that should be municipal services.
Public mail has protections from unlawful access, but is subject to the same search and seizure rules as everything else if presented with a lawful warrant.
The odds of a public email with true E2EE seems damn near impossible to me.
politically impossible not technically. so its pretty much like every freedom and right ever in possibility.
A few years ago I would be arguing that everything should just be free.
But now I understand that everybody needs to eat so I’d be happy to pay something for a good browser. But most people are like my former self.
If they did not prove themselves to be a better browser in terms of privacy, then what is the purpose of their existence?
So would you be willing to pay for a subscription to prevent them from going to an ad-supported business model?
If they kept my privacy 100%, sure I could pay up to 3 dollars a month.
