I have used the Firefox browser for a while because it is the only Windows browser that can be configured to use a monitor’s profile to display colours correctly on a high gamut display.
Now I have two more reasons: standing with Mozilla’s CEO who is in trouble for supporting traditional marriage; being blocked from accessing the okCupid dating website.
From here:
Brendan Eich, the CEO of Mozilla, which created and maintains the Firefox web browser, is under fire for having donated $1000 to Proposition 8 in California. Prop 8 was against changing marriage to make homosexual unions equal to heterosexual unions.
Among many protests against Brendan’s ‘politics’, the dating site okCupid is blocking visitors to its site using Firefox and asking them to ditch the Mozilla browser as a way of punishing Mozilla and Brandon for his views.
The champions of tolerance once again have turned into bullies to harass and punish all who disagree with their opinions.
In another significant moment of “evolution”, the US President now has reversed his former policy supportive of an August, 2012, House Resolution, adopted unanimously:
that is, reserving USA control of the internet infrastructure and content.
Now he is attempting to have the U.N. empowered to do so –
itself controlled by O.I.C. (Organization of Islamic Co-operation), the largest voting bloc of 57 Saudi-dominated nations, restrictive of free speech, press and expression.
Look for your new local internet cafe at that former Church now ‘converted’ into a mosque!
