The Register explained it better than I can.
Briefly: Mozilla promised they “never will” sell users’ personal information and have removed that promise from their website, implying they’ve broken that promise. They rely on Google for 90% of their revenue so they’re definitely not independent. They’re pivoting to AI, integrating large lying machines into the browser. They turned on “Smart Tabs” by default which uses AI to organise your tabs for you - except it was using 100% of CPU for a number of users. Their CEO has a sub 20% approval rating on Glassdoor too. The last straw for me? They bought Fakespot and promptly killed it.
