For the first time in about 10 years, I don't have Mozilla Firefox installed on any of my computers.
I've read your FAQ on Mr. Eich's resignation. I was even further incensed after reading it. No worldwide corporation should cave to extortion over the personal lives and views of their leaders. Why not allow time for the market-place to decide if those views are really harmful to the company, so harmful and out-of touch that changes must be made? As you are finding out, the market-place will ultimately be the judge anyway. It matters not if it was the Board that caved or Mr. Eich who caved. Together you've only emboldened gay extremists to continue sacrificing personal speech and expression on the altar of political correctness. If Mozilla's leadership, with or without Mr. Eich, is too weak or stupid to recognize the harm done by allowing a miniscule minority of gay rights extremists to get their way, then I certainly don't want Mozilla products on any of my computers. Neither Firefox, nor any other Mozilla product, will be installed on any computer in my home or my business unless and until Mozilla publicly condemns the behavior of gay rights extremists, or any other groups, who dare to punish Mozilla for the political speech of its employees in their personal lives. Anything else is un-American. Your entire Board should be ashamed for its remarkable lack of courage and foresight.
