I remember reading a lot this past year about Mozilla fretting about their market share and trying to figure out how to grow their user base. Did I hallucinate that? Cuz their actions lately appear to be driving users away. Are they taking notes from Google or is there some other MBA making these brilliant changes?

Remember the Looking Glass fiasco? The people in charge of Firefox are so stupid it's indistinguishable from malice.

Need more advertising in Firefox to keep pumping those exec salaries.

Most of their income comes directly from Google, the incumbent browser monopoly. I'm full tin foil hat on this one, Google is pulling the strings here.
