So many downvotes..

I'm only about 10% in (and just skimming), and it's a rant but it's coherent and well-reasoned.

Starts off as a dive into Mozilla's rank hypocrisy and doublespeak around privacy.

It's all about presentation.

Hyperbole like "Devil Incarnate" is such a turnoff that I don't think it'll be worth the time. Things like this are why I also don't read "Weekly World News".

Now, a title like "Mozilla's Problematic History" is a fox of a different species altogether.

I'm also uninterested in someone's rant.

Oh, I agree. I don't think it's a particularly useful reference page -- more of a biased agglomeration on a substrate of preconceived opinion, but the initial pile-on of downvotes without comments felt a bit like the usual Mozilla-fanaticism.

I tend to upvote posts not because I agree with them, but because I'm interested in people's responses to the ideas within them.
