President Trump hasn’t lost a penny because of the BBC’s editing, and his $10 billion lawsuit against them is preposterous.

The only way for the BBC to preserve its journalistic integrity is to fight back.

"AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off."

Since this is the flat out opposite of Firefox now—you have to go into unsupported debug settings and click eight boxes based on folklore—and there's no acknowledgement that this comment is a complete 180 on Firefox's current policy of enabling AI in secret then trying to trick you into using it… this statement is not a reassurance to me. It feels dishonest and like a continuation of Firefox's dishonesty about AI, "PPA" etc.

One of the myths that comes up again and again in FOSS is "It's run by a non-profit, it's safe, the corporate world cannot take it over".

Mozilla shows how incorrect this assumption is: https://mastodon.social/@sarahjamielewis/115730052589989499

Non-profits can be captured by corporations very easily:

1. Evil corporation donates massive amount of money to a non-profit, far more than it got from individuals, grants etc.
2. Non-profit uses the massive donation to greatly extend its features and pay itself much bigger salaries
3. Non-profit can no longer function without corporate donations
4. Non-profit captured, does whatever corporation wants
