  • The benefit of the doubt logic here Is as follows:

    Mozilla thinks that the ad supported model of the web is essential to continuing to function.

    Mozilla knows that the vast majority of installs have an adblocker installed.

    In order to keep the ecosystem healthy they’re exploring ethical advertising options.

    Counterpoint:

    The vast majority of their income comes from the largest advertising company in the world - alphabet.

    They need to be seen to at least make some efforts to not murder the advertising model through their mere existence while not pissing off the community too much.





  • Mate, what are you on about?

    You create a whole universe and stick humans in a tiny portion of a tiny galaxy, of a tiny star system, in a tiny part of the planet, in a tiny set of environmental conditions able to observe a tiny percentage of the electromagnetic radiation for a tiny amount of time able to manipulate objects in a tiny percentage of physical scale and are born to have 0 knowledge of God unless some other human tells you about it, and you better hope you believe the right one or you are sent to eternal torment?

    “But it makes sense because your mind would melt” wtf?

    Give us a universal language and an innate ability to read it, and write your words on the surface of the moon, or even better we grow with the knowledge pre installed in our heads.

    The decision to buy is made by numbers before the purchase: returning visitors, time spent etc. “look at how many hours of eyeballs we’re buying”

    The decision to kill the porn is made by social pressure after the purchase: “hey we’ve noticed that in your stable if brands you have some questionable materials. We can’t be associated with that kind of filth, you’re damaging our brand.” - cc processors, advertisers etc. “my wife went on that platform we just bought and you won’t believe what she found” - half the members of the board.

    Most boards are collectively moronic - rarely do you have competent people that can hold serious tense discussion and can reach conclusions without either descending into massive infighting or just coast along the dominant political players.
