i'm a big believer in giving people a chance. if the guy were already using his position as mozilla's ceo to gay-bash, yeah, that would be something to be upset about (to fire him about? i don't know... although i probably would have boycotted)

as it is... there's not really a good case. especially considering that he was part of a large majority. tens of millions of americans have changed their views since then -- do we even know he's not one of them?



that said -- there's definitely a part of me that is gleefully gloating about the fact that the tables have turned and that the days of popular campaigns forcing companies to be less gsm-friendly are likely dead and gone.

Yes, we do. In the week following the discovery, he said he still felt the same way about same-sex marriage and did not regret his funding. The most he would say was to apologize for pain people felt in response to learning about his donation.

oh, ok.
