I'd point out that none of the above require users to trust interaction with a 3rd party proprietary service. I think this is the line that Mozilla has crossed, arguably in the Hello case, repeated in the Yahoo case and now with Pocket. I still don't see any reference to how, when or where this decision was made. This might help improve the transparency and arguments for Pocket's inclusion. I suspect that the reason many people use Mozilla software is for this sort of transparency and to make their own decisions about who to trust on the internet. _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
