Do not directly include big logos from private media in my default
start page, without even offering me to get rid it of them. When I
see this start page on the main browser of an OS made by free
software advocates, I shake my head in disbelief. And we're
pretending to be advocating independence...
do you have taken the time and try out that "start page"?
If so I would mind you haven't written such a bug report! It's simple
video make by Mozilla to even explain who should own the net in these days.
As I said, "I find the video cool [and] I for one don't mind seeing some Firefox
promotion..."
And if you don't like that, just turn it of.
Just change the start page to nothing.
I know how to workaround my install. The real victims are ignorant users, and
our project's public image.
The problematic part is at the end. The cryptic "#ChooseIndependent" and logos
from private media, shown by default and in large size. I don't condemn marketing, but if
we promote independence, let's not promote the opposite at the same time.
There are several measures which can alleviate this besides simple removal:
* only show the material once
* offer to remove it
* only show sharing material after the video was watched
* do not show the sharing material (for example, only link to Mozilla's page)
