@drdpov @noondlyt @johnglass @kevinrothrock if you love cryptocurrency and can turn a blind eye to Brendan Eich, which is a lot to ask, then you still can't pretend Brave isn't reliant on Chrome's source code, and as such largely at the whims of whichever way Google wants to steer the Chromium project. It's like Chromium for people who don't know that browser extensions could've done that all too (or for people who think crypto isn't a scam and/or a little bit of queerphobia is OK as a treat).

Thanks for clarifying 👍 (rather than just saying something is crap but not saying why).

@grb090423 @TheCoolest @drdpov @noondlyt @johnglass @kevinrothrock I mean, come one, what would you think would the Russian state do? Likely they have big fines, if they don't comply, maybe even arrest people?

"I would say that I’m surprised Mozilla gave in, but at the same time, it’s highly likely resisting would lead to massive fines and possible arrests of any Mozilla employees or contributors living in Russia"

@grb090423 @TheCoolest @drdpov @noondlyt @johnglass @kevinrothrock Let's see how Google can resist, maybe even longer. I mean they likely have received the same letters?

@rugk @grb090423 @TheCoolest @noondlyt @johnglass @kevinrothrock the point is that those original requests from authorities did not refer to any low. It's forbidden to promote vpn like services, but hosting or installing them is still permitted.

If you want an example of what happens to services which are not complying with laws un russia - they are just getting blocked - like LinledIn, twitter, instagram etc

@rugk @grb090423 @TheCoolest @drdpov @noondlyt @johnglass @kevinrothrock I hear this argument quite often, but unlike Google or Microsoft, does Mozilla have or has it ever had any offices or employees in Russia? mozilla.org/en-US/contact/spac shows only 4 locations. Also, much bigger companies have left Russia after it started the war. Should have been a no-brainer for Mozilla.
