Well... that was a disappointing read. Those questions deserve some answers.
I take a small exception to the author's inflation of figures. They claim things like "nearly half a million dollars" when the actual referenced total was less than $400k. The same with saying the CEO's $5 million bonus was all of the $7 million Mozilla took in as donations from users. Even if unintentional, it raises questions about the author's motivations - not that Mozilla has a spotless record or are beyond being questioned about their finances.
It's odd to me how this articleis being silenced/removed or downplayed by the entire tech community. It looks like people sinerely believe tha Mozilla can't do no wrong or that Mozilla is above any judgment while other entities are being systematically (and hypocritically) attacked for personal matters (e.g., Brave's CEO).
It’s because the article reads like right wrong propaganda. If it was written better and not as opinionated it would get traction.
