There's really no action that stake-holders in Mozilla Corp can do to replace the CEO and change the direction of the business/charity sadly.

The bosses are clearly being rewarded for their complete failure to maintain market share, let alone grow it.

They are not investing in a free open and open-source internet, they are investing in proprietary AI systems and corporate owned social forums.

It's a shame to have seen this former charity turn into a business so thoroughly taken by the tech-bro mindset.

A petition wouldn't do it at this stage, they are entirely consumed by money.

We need to somehow fund a new browser fork interested in the open internet instead of getting their part of the pie.
