   Remember the new @mozilla CEO whose first action was to post a link to her Linkedin profile?

   Some said I was harsh that we should let her the benefit of doubt.

   So here are the first true actions: firing 60 people working on useless products to focus the company on its true mission.

   The useless products?
   - Relay (privacy, protection against spam)
   - VPN (privacy)
   - Mozilla.social (Mastodon)
   - Monitor (privacy)

   True mission to focus:
   - AI (???)

   You can’t made that up

     What's really worrying: it jeopardizes a truly independent Linux future.
     Browsers are increasingly the heart of any operating system. If Firefox falters, we will all be at the mercy of Google, no matter what we use...

     @ploum Tell me your new CEO doesn't understand market strategy without telling me that your CEO doesn't understand market strategy.
