"My saunter began in the garden, just a few misplaced parts there. I couldn't really tell what they were, so I just walked through the broken door to the front room.

And there it was. That head. As a misplaced ornament upon the armchair. And then looking down I saw the infants body and my knees slightly buckled. I had seen much horror, the body parts of children were a daily chore, but this body was just a little too intact. I could tell where the neck used to attach both.

And since then I cannot be human.

For I had fired the rocket that destroyed them.

For the good of all mankind."

@wakame Yep. Funded from the commons, for the common good.

This is not enough. We need competing Free Code web browsers, *not* funded by DataFarmers.

For a large chunk of its history Mozilla has been kept alive by Goggle. For the same reason BorgSoft kept Apple alive as a weakened competitor to Windows. To vaccinate themselves against antitrust enforcement to break up the monopoly they effectively have in the browser and desktop OS respectively.

Agreed! Although #Firefox may be the best we've got for now.

Of course there are #Epiphany, #Konqueror and other FOSS browsers, but I think developing an up-to-date (let alone secure) web browser is a serious effort.

Btw, I do use #Librewolf as my main browser, but if Firefox were to end, I'm not sure they will be able to keep it going by themselves.
