The people who researched this topic and wrote that article are most probably not the ones working on the browser. As any company, Mozilla has departments.
Bob I'm going to need to look into that codec bug in Firefox. Also, how's that car review coming along?
Damnit Bob, Firefox is still broken and we need that article on cars! Where do you think you are? Car and Driver?!? This is Mozilla, Bob! We have deadlines and if you can’t or won’t finish the editorial process while fixing the browser then you can move along to WaPo, or NYT, or Vanity Fair. Some rag outfit will take you if you cannot hack it as a hacker and investigational journalist for the MOZ!!
I know I used to develop for it. My point was directed at the funding . The web needs a strong alternative to chrome now more than ever. Neutering projects like servo does not help. Also most non technical people don't even know of Mozilla and anyone that does probably associates it with Firefox.
Anyway I'm downvoted for having a valid opinion. Whatever
