Comment on Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome

Did I ever say it was going away?

MySpace still exists. You can still log into Myspace and use it. Same is true of Livejournal, ICQ (last I checked,) and many other bygone services.

They're not going anywhere either. But they're still useless outside of edge cases.

I want Firefox to succeed. But I've also been watching it lose relevance for the last 10 years. I'd prefer it not to go the way of MySpace because its users are too stubborn to admit that it has a problem.

well, you keep worrying about it.

I and the rest of us will keep using it.

Let's check back in 5-10 years.

  "The rest of us?" I've been using Mozilla since it was a thing and I used Netscape back when you could buy it.
  
  Caring about a project means recognizing risks. But I guess we shall see. Firefox, a Chromium based project, perhaps. Like Edge, Opera, etc.

  I annoy my employer by insisting on having it available and installed. Why so angry and exclusionary?
