They’d rather not because they’re all about posting misleading anti-mozilla sentiment
Every single anti-Mozilla post OP has posted recently (I’ve seen 4 of them just today in my feed) is extremely misleading. Strange pattern…
OP, can we fuck off with the Mozilla hate? How much is Google paying you to cry?
You’re absolutely right, I checked all of the Mozilla hate posts I commented on today and they are all posted by OP ([email protected])

Nobody used the damn thing, but shuttering it makes them cowards? k
The fate of Mozilla is sad, I know one day they will announce a move to chromium.
why the fuck would they kill the thing that makes them money? Do you even understand what you are implying here??
There is, I just saw a post trying to demonize Mozilla simply because they had a few job listings for AI and Ad managers and the take away in the post itself was like “I see they have fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads”, like are you serious??? A few job listings is enough to paint the entire future of the company lol
So…your theory that this proves Israeli expansionism is based on the fact that Hezbollah is not Hamas… While conveniently ignoring the generations of bad blood and historically relevant context. Could you be any more reductive?
It’s a pretty big and important distinction, because this attack by Israel was only tangentially related to their genocide in Palestine
Hezbollah chose to enter this Israel/palestine war, this isn’t simply Israel taking advantage of the awful conflict to try and gain more land, it’s a blatant reaction. Sure if it results in more land, great, but this sort of thing is to be expected when you send missile after missile at a country. But no, Isreal would totally only respond to lethal threats if they can meet their expansionist goals right? That’s the only explanation of motivation right?
https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-hezbollah
Hezbollah is a Shiite Muslim political party and militant group based in Lebanon, where its extensive security apparatus, political organization, and social services network have fostered its reputation as “a state within a state.” Founded in the chaos of the fifteen-year Lebanese Civil War, the Iran-backed group is driven by its opposition to Israel and its resistance to Western influence in the Middle East.
Due to its history of carrying out terrorist attacks internationally, Hezbollah has been designated a terrorist organization by the United States and many other countries, though some just apply this label to its armed wing. Hezbollah’s deep-rooted alliances with Iran and Syria have transformed it into an increasingly effective military force, creating a formidable opponent for its longtime enemy Israel. Escalating border clashes between the two adversaries now threaten to open a new battlefront in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, which would come at great cost to economically devastated Lebanon.
Yes Israel’s disgusting expansionism is a problem, no it doesn’t create a clean convenient context that aligns with moral values and right to life like the one your comment is attempting to present. Obligatory fuck the IDF, and fuck Hamas, and sure why not Hez as well. There are no angels.
This is just AI fear mongering. There is no meme here.
the underlying purpose to AI
Say no more, nothing valuable can follow this set up.
Like seriously, are we to believe that AIs purpose of existence is just one singular thing?? You could say the almost or not the same bullshit about computers or even machines in general or anything else that shifts the dynamic of where labor is needed.
“AI only exists so wealth can steal from you!!!” It’s like those lies people would throw around to create fear like fascists do with minority groups.
Like bro, the wealthy are already stealing from us this doesn’t move the needle a cm. At the same time AI can be a huge help to disabled and elderly, how does that fit into the ultimate purpose of the wealthy removing skilled workers access to wealth.
This shit is a fever dream of weird propaganda
First off, keep in mind the post we’re all responding to is trying to use these listings to paint the entire focus/future of this company with a single brushstroke, as that is relevant context.
I see they have fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads
that statement right there.
Basically at least 1/3 of the jobs they’re advertising that have a specific team mentioned are AI or ads jobs.
oh, but they had 9 open listings for AI!!! THat’s a THIRD of the cOmPaNy’s listings!!!
Are you not aware of how big Mozilla is? https://leadiq.com/c/mozilla/5a1d88fe2400002400628c85/employee-directory

That alone shows how insane this take is. Mozilla dipping their toes into the water with a handful of roles doesn’t mean mozilla is focused on it alone (or even at all!). Secondly, there is a lot of value that can be taken from AI (both server and client-side), without even touching the subject of generating images/video/text/etc. Things like auto-transcriptions, summaries for the seeing impaired, etc.
But then we get these posts essentially fear mongering any perceived interest as slight as it may be into AI. Absurd.
The correct number of ads people working at Firefox is 0.
Here you are telling on yourself. Ads, whether you like it or not, are a huge piece of how the internet funds itself. As Mozilla is essentially the second largest browser after chromium-based ones, you absolutely need someone managing how ads integrate with your browser.
For example, there is a HUGE amount of people that don’t want to mess with ad blockers and such and want a browser to protect them outright, Mozilla can do this with things like privacy-preserving attribution to protect user data while still serving ads in good faith.
Yes, it is so very easy to say FUCK ads, they don’t belong on the internet… until you want to host something and suddenly the costs can get real big real fast.
And another thing, you say “correct number of ads people working at firefox is 0”
You can’t do this with any company.
by this, do you mean cherry pick open listings by a company and pretend that those open listings are indicative of not only the companies focus but also their general distribution of efforts? Because that’s all you’re doing with this comment.
This is such a braindead fucking take. Companies should explore new technology not just take a look at the current popular opinion and run with it as absolute fact. The majority of this post is literally just using AI as a boogieman, oh no they’re creating jobs that relate to AI! The company is over!!!
They saw three roles that mentioned AI and took that as absolute proof that Mozilla has “fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads”. Grow the fuck up. The internet takes money to run, ads are an inevitability so no shit a major browser company has someone managing that aspect of their browser…
I see they have fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads
oh, but they had 9 open listings for AI!!! THat’s a THIRD of the cOmPaNy’s listings!!!

Exactly what I suspected. How could you even truly prove such a thing
Happened to me this morning, nothing worse than a goddamn brick instead of a phone when you wake up (late for work)
FIFTY?!
yawn, I’ve been dual-booting macs with linux for many many years
This could have been an internet search engine job, literally just type “define cognitive dissonance” and it will be explained. Why do we need an entire post for this??
