Clarifying what's happening at Mozilla: an Interview with Ryan Sipes from Thunderbird
1h?! Do you have a TL;DW?
Paraphrased from my other comment:
Firefox is the only fully open source direct-to-consumer product that operates at such a large scale, and there is a ton of regulatory pressure on them to be as forthright as possible in stuff like the tos and privacy policy, and since they're the only one they can't learn from others mistakes.
Combine that with legalese sounding scary and Mozilla not being great at communication (they're trying though, remember we heard about this from a blog post) and you get the current situation.
Good point... Thanks for the reply
With so many dumb ways Google is pushing AI down our throats, creating a TL;DW feature would be actually quite useful.
Same thoughts here ... if you can't get a clear simple message across in a short amount of time or space and you need long winded answers and cryptic responses in vague language ... then there is definitely something fucky happening.
The "something fucky" is that Firefox is the only fully open source direct-to-consumer product that operates at such a large scale, and there is a ton of regulatory pressure on them to be as forthright as possible, and since they're the only one they can't learn from others mistakes.
