Opening my Internet home-page today, found this missive from Mozilla Firefox:
Big corporations want to restrict entry. Fake news and filter bubbles
are making it harder for us to find our way. Online bullies are
silencing inspired voices. And our desire to explore is hampered by
threats to our safety and privacy. It’s time to join Mozilla and do our
part as digital citizens. Donate today to support programs that keep the
internet healthy, free and open for us all.
(1) It's not "big corporations"
trying to restrict Internet usage. (Are you kidding? Corporations want
ads, that's all.) It's the government seeking control, and sometimes rightfully so:
i.e., radical Muslims and Russian operatives being allowed uncensored access to the Internet. I applaud any
government that tries to limit any such radicals from posting their propaganda (via Firefox, for example).
(2) RE "Fake news and
filter bubbles making it harder for us to find our way." Are you
KIDDING? YOU, Firefox, are responsible for said
"fake news" appearing on any platform that you control. If fake news is a problem, then DO YOUR JOB and edit out the fake news.
(3) RE "Online bullies are
silencing inspired voices." Ha! I'm an Independent. And what's been
happening online lately is a concerted effort to stifle any voice that
doesn't correspond to current left-wing PC group-think. The leftists are the so-called "online bullies." Please maintain your independence, Mozilla, and don't align with the decidedly UNHEALTHY thought-fascists.
