    No, Mozilla, it doesn’t threaten independent browsers; it threatens yours alone. Because of your stupid decision of relying on Google to finance yourself, while bleeding users because you don’t know what or for whom you want to be.

    And now, all according to Google’s plan, you’ve became its lapdog (lap fox?) barking at the ones trying to rein on your master. Much like a caramel dog barking at the cops after its owner gets handcuffed.

    Rather than a world where market share […] beyond.

    Nice corpo babble but without specific suggestions it’s the same as used toilet paper.

    We’re going to see more pages in the Book of Mozilla.

    EDIT: browsers are currently such a convoluted and complex mess that almost nobody can reasonably start a new one from the scratch, and that prevents any sort of real competition. While this is not addressed, killing Google is like taking an aspirin, it’ll get rid of the headache for two hours and the problem is still there.

    I wonder if browsers couldn’t become something more modular, with different groups being able to code different parts of it, without too much fuss.
