🤦‍♂️ Mozilla has apparently decided to get into the advertising business.

"We are growing the #Mozilla #Ads team to create a digital #advertising platform that is consistent with Mozilla’s principles. As an early member of the product team you will help drive our vision to best serve users and advertisers with effective #privacy respecting ad products."

@downey I get that ads pay the bills and all, but does anyone really believe a privacy respecting ad product can actually be done?

@jordan_kendrick @downey Personally I reckon it can, but I'll have to see it to believe it.

There'll be plenty of pressure to resist!

@alcinnz @downey Yeah, this is kind of a fool me once type scenario. Ultimately trust is earned and once it's lost it's 10x harder to earn back.
