You might not know it, but Firefox was once widely considered to be an innovative browser. It wasn’t just an alternative to Internet Explorer (and now Chrome). Firefox introduced honest-to-goodness new features that people loved and rely on to this day.

That's an interesting interpretation! I definitely agree that that is the underlying bug, but it also seems to rob people -- Firefox users, developers, managers, contributors of agency - we are all in thrall to the almighty Google.

I think we can do more to even in the face of that stiff competition (and ignorance) - which is why I wrote.
