Martín¿Qué carajo Mozilla?¿Para desuscribirme de unos emails tengo que dar todas esas explicaciones y esa información (todos campos obligatorios)?Y encima parece que es algo que envío para pedir permiso a ver si me aprueban el pedido.¿Por qué no se van un poquitito a cagar, Mozilla y OneTrust?<a href="https://rebel.ar/tags/mozilla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mozilla</a> <a href="https://rebel.ar/tags/onetrust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#onetrust</a>

Tommi 🤯That’s it. I simply cannot use <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@zenbrowser" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@zenbrowser</a> for work.My battery drains faster than a truck burning fuel.

Rusty CorgiMe: Please don't use Chromium-based browsers, use Firefox instead.

nixCraft 🐧Mozilla CEO made around 7 million USD last year, but hosting bills are pending. Now, they updated the ToS, and you can't watch p0rn, or your data will be sold, or they no longer care about the orignal mission, etc. Once again, we see C-suits lose their grip on reality. As long as they are getting paid in millions, software projects can go to /dev/null. It is like they want to ruin the project on purpose. There is no other explanation I can think of.
