When it comes to being an employee (especially in a big company) I always
give the following advice to people who obsessively whine and complain
about their job or work environment or boss.

1) Try to fix the problem internally yourself. If you cannot then...
2) Can you suck it up and be miserable without complaining like a baby all
the time? If not then...
3) Find a new job.

Looks like the employees at Mozilla found success at step #1.

This is not different than a consumer boycotting a product or company in
order to make them change their behavior (or if they are not willing to
change, run them out of business). The employees applied pressure for this
person to change. He did not, instead of changing his ways he doubled down
and quit.

The end. The world moves on.
