Done - and left a very strong feedback on their site!

I read through the comments earlier...then deleted Mozilla’s Firefox and Thunderbird. I have Opera now and it works great on my Mac with the add-ons for blocking ads and trackers etc. (AdBlock and Ghostery).

Thanks for posting!

As long as Firefox/Mozilla is willing to can their conservative CEO...shouldn't we cast our vote by canning Firefox/Mozilla.

I'm inclined to say no - the usual conservative response to established cultural mores being broken is to withdraw. Conservatives have withdrawn in disgust from Hollywood, from the mainstream news organizations, from the administration of public schools and universities, and the Left has taken those institutions over without a fight.

Boycotts are the easy way out - just a way to withdraw again, and what happens once the makers of Opera or other browsers announce views similar to the Mozilla board's views? Staying involved and making one's voice heard is a lot harder than cutting and running, but also a lot more productive. Conservatives should keep using whatever products they like best and make sure the makers of these products know that conservatives are a big part of their user base.

All these silicon valley companies share the same "culture" as far as I can tell. Mozilla just got caught out at it.

If there is a browser firm out there who will explicitly stand by an executive who supports traditional marriage, please show me. I will switch to their product at once.

Until then I see no need to drop Mozilla for another company that enforces the PC dogma in a less public way.

I’m using Pale Moon now. May be Mozilla at the core but being Firefox-less is something I’ll have to transition from.
