Browser maker decided not to follow Putin's orders. Well done
  • Mozilla has reinstated previously banned Firefox add-ons in Russia that were designed to circumvent state censorship, such as a VPN and a tool to access Tor websites.
  • The ban was initially imposed at the request of Russia’s internet censorship agency, Roskomnadzor, but Mozilla lifted it to support an open and accessible internet.
  • Mozilla’s decision reflects its commitment to users in Russia and globally, despite the potential risks associated with the regulatory environment in Russia.

    Mozilla is a non profit organisation.

      They’re both; Mozilla Foundation, the non-profit org, is the parent of Mozilla Corporation, the for-profit organization I’m talking about.

      Mozilla Corporation is in charge of distribution of the official download and development coordination and some other things. Now the Foundation is in charge over them admittedly, but I see that as a bit like playing with fire.

      I wouldn’t say mad, more…just prepared for the worst
