@miah @kissane Well, there's kind of an exchange of folks between all the tech companies. Some ex-Firefox folks went to work on Chrome at various points, I think some went to Apple for Safari, and some came from those teams to Mozilla. Some went to Facebook because they saw opportunities for impact. Folks go all over the place

@lmorchard @kissane Surely. But if you are a corporation with a specific goal, there are certainly people you don't want to hire as they'll disrupt that goal with their brainwashed bullshit.

I'm not sure you can make any kind of positive impact by working at Facebook unless you're hired to turn off servers.

Missions & money kind of make a mess
