    Mitchell Baker, Laura Chambers, Nabila Syed… Well it seems women are no better than men as far as capitalist greed goes. It is clear they want to steal the money of developers who want to build Firefox and other tools in better ways, instead of doing this AI and buzzword marketing bullshit and killing Firefox. They even had to layoff some security developers in the past few years just so that these CEO pigs could fill their tummies with more money.

    Instead of the anti-trans agenda Brendan Eich, we get this other opposite agenda in place with money grubbing CEOs. Using leftist politics to cloak themselves is fucking disgusting. But since they are women, they will be immune to any criticisms.

      She is taking a position at the non-profit Mozilla Foundation, not the for-profit Mozilla Corporation that builds Firefox, did layoffs, and pays its executives millions.

            Did you read the article?

            With this change, we are seeking a new Executive Director to lead the Foundation’s movement-building programs. Currently, the Foundation has two core programs:

            Global Programs funds, convenes, and synthesizes the movement to increase the diversity, cohesion and impact of people working on internet health issues globally. The team has conducted research on AI transparency best practices; given grants

            Over the past few years, Mozilla’s leadership — including CEO and Chairwoman Mitchell Baker and President and Executive Director Mark Surman — have been working to expand the scope of this work. Surman has been focused both on pointing to the Foundation’s movement-building programs at the challenge of creating trustworthy AI and on expanding the Mozilla portfolio to include a new venture capital arm and a commercial AI R+D lab.

            Former executive director was the one aiming to create AI, and new executive director is filling the role now. So, it is the same circus clowns doing the show.

              The former executive director was also the president, and continues to be the president, where he will pursue AI.

              Starting in 2024, Surman will move full time to work on this growth and expansion work, remaining as Mozilla Foundation President.
