That was all that had been dug up about him before he stood down. It was not good business sense for him to continue as the CEO of a company that has an entirely different ethos to the values that the CEO holds.

How do any of his known political views contradict those of Mozilla?  Mozilla has not been a particularly political organization.

What is wrong with making a donation to Ron Paul?

While it has not been a major part of his issue set, Paul has been anti-net neutrality, which likely puts him against the majority of Mozilla stakeholders on this issue.  Tho, I don't know if Mozilla per se took a stance since for what they do, net neutrality does not affect their operations.

I don't know why the left is apparently okay with McCarthyism
Anyway, excellent news! The market's at work! On a personal note, I'm glad this happened, since I use Firefox and now won't have to switch to Chrome. Smiley
Are you serious? You were actually going to switch to Chrome because of this? I have no opinion of the fact that this CEO was fired, but that's just ridiculous, for so many reasons.
I suspect there will be those who will switch from Firefox to another browser over this, either because of their views on SSM or their views on free speech.  (Far more over the former than the latter.)
