They keep giving us more reasons to sail the high seas.

Your biggest mistake was automatically assuming anything in corporation says is a lie, and projecting that into me.

All that matters is the track record.

This comment aged like milk given they had already lifted the ban.

This is what LGPL is for.

You can still use a library like a library freely, without restriction, but you are keeping your IP protected from being copied cloned and modified elsewhere.

I'm going to guess because of the tools that don't use LGPL.

Which makes them quite limiting and kind of controversial since you have to adopt their license from my understanding, even if used as a library.

I try and use LGPL on all my projects since it allows others to use the Library as a library, and anyone that wants to modify or use the source has to copy left.

How to lose another election against an actual anti-democracy fascist who couldn't pass a turning test 101.

It really is, holy crap. It's like 1 paragraph per ad.

Did you read the article? No? Cmon. You should start doing that before drawing conclusions.

This is noted as a temporary block on the specific extensions ONLY within the country with regulatory power to ban Firefox. Russia.

Mozilla has stated this is temporary so they can have the breathing room to figure out how to navigate this. Since this goes against their principles.

It's either Firefox is banned in Russia, or they do this. Which causes more harm? That's a rough choice for them to need to make.

Welcome to the lowest common denominator.

It's an infuriating world.

Firefox?

This is only in the country that has regulatory authority, Russian, and is stated as temporary so Mozilla can figure out what to do about it.

Imagine being to wishy washy that you can't even read the article before doing a 180 on your principles.
