It’s been a long time coming, but the trust in Firefox and its mother organization, Mozilla, seems to be mostly gone, after a recent commit on the source code removed the “we don’t sell your data” promise, along with a change of Privacy notice and Terms of Use.

    If only my taxes were put toward things we want and need instead of murdering brown people in other countries.

    I see a browser as no different than other municipal services.

      I would like a public email where the same protections physical mail gets are applied with end to end encryption. There are a lot of internet things that should be municipal services.

        Public mail has protections from unlawful access, but is subject to the same search and seizure rules as everything else if presented with a lawful warrant.

        The odds of a public email with true E2EE seems damn near impossible to me.

      Public tech funds are an amazing use of tax dollars, I would love it if we had more investment in these systems!
