  • Oh geez the leadership is making more mistakes.

    • Not necessarily. If they're low on cash then cutting unnecessary costs is not unreasonable. What is Mozilla's core goal? Perhaps the "advocacy" and "global programs" divisions weren't all that relevant to it, and so their funding is better put elsewhere.

      • Let's wait and see how this funding won't be talked about ever again and later on the CEO coincidentally gets yet another raise
