Firefox usage is down despite Mozilla's top exec pay going up
They had a GREAT CEO.<p>Brendan Eich.<p>He not only was heavily involved with destroying IE&#x27;s monopoly, he was able to start Brave in a punishing market (competing against Google, Apple, and his own FF) and made it a contender.<p>But, he wasn&#x27;t woke enough. And for that, everyone will now pay dearly.<p>I daresay, learning that someone else is entitled to a competing view is difficult. Allowing others to have a view other than yours means that you and those you agree with may pay a cost. But the cost of not allowing any other opinion whatsoever to exist other than the one you believe in will eventually have a much much greater cost, in many more places than you would think.  Mr. Eich once gave $1K to a cause that was anti-gay. He backtracked and apologized but was cancelled anyways. The cost of losing the only open contender to the spyware that passes as a browser is but a byproduct of the immature view that destroyed FF. It will eventually come back to kill those that think you are not allowed to marry your mother, and probably, eventually, to those that think you are allowed to be religious.
