Great post. Does it matter if it's right or left wing? How did you concluded that
It absolutely matters. We need to consider that a right-wing actor is likely to exaggerate claims against an organization that is ostensibly socially-minded and represents anti-corporate interests, like Mozilla.
Seems pretty corporate interests to me.
I’m not denying that Mozilla has a history of poor governance. But they are the competitor to Google here. You need to consider these things in context to understand what anti-corporate means for the internet.
The only reason they're a competitor to Google is because Google allows them to be by giving them money for the default search engine.
They're just sailing their boat until it sinks.
