    This is fantastic. That said, Mozilla should really reconsider their own CEO too.

      Are you referring to the foundation president Mark Surman or the corporation CEO Laura Chambers? She seems to be an interim position holder, so I guess whatcha referring to?

        Laura. Her past affiliations are concerning. I’m aware she’s seated on an interim position, but I can’t imagine that there weren’t any better candidates.

        Pretty sure he’s saying there should be no ultimate head. Which…umm…if you get rid of CEO then someone below them is in charge and then you just keep cutting people until nobody is left lol

          That’s not at all what I said. You’re conflating my comment with that of someone else.

          Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems like for the most part, at least for big decisions, the corporation answers to the foundation which is more of a commitee anyway. Maybe they’re kept more separate than that, but that’s the impression that I got.

        It’s always funny to see someone who thinks they know how it works but in reality has no clue whatsoever how it works.

        how the hell do you expect to run a company (any company of any sort, non-profit included) without a proper legal representative
