  Problem without solution.

  Chromium by Google, Safari by Apple, Firefox by Mozilla. All are developed by companies that are part of advertising industry.

    As if these are all equally deep in advertising with the same motivations and history

      It’s not a comparison of how deep each of them are. It’s simple fact that they all are. Even defunct one like Internet Explorer or Edge were part of the same industry. It’s a pattern, not a coincidence.

        Mozilla making the judgment that it may be more effective to attempt to push advertising tech towards more privacy friendly technology (i don’t agree with them but I can understand the thought process) and Google being an evil advertising empire are not even remotely the same thing.

        While you’re technically correct, this false equivalence you’re trying to draw is just absurd.

        They all are NOT. Mozilla is not part of “the advertising industry”.
