LIBREZILLA - MISSION STATEMENT | |
The project aims to create a *really* free fork of Mozilla software, like Firefox and Thunderbird, | |
taking the needs of users, operators and distro maintainers seriously, and get rid of anything | |
that engangers freedom and privacy/security, like Despostic Restriction Management and Spyware | |
("SaferWeb" that sends pivate data to google, position and movement tracking by websites, etc). | |
In contrast to Mozilla - a frontend organisation of Google and Netflix - Librezilla does NOT | |
serve corporate interests. Important technology, like Browsers, do not belong into the hands | |
of mega-corporations. We, the people, should be deserve, and demand control. | |
WHY FORK ? | |
Mozilla's employees have made it clear many times, that they serve an corporate interests. | |
Neither do they have any real interest in any serious community contributions, nor do they | |
tolerate any critics. Their reactions range from selective censorship, to banning critics | |
from their communication platforms (facebook, mailing lists, etc) to personal threats. | |
It is clear that none of the serious security and freedom fixes from our side, eg. deactive | |
Despotic Restriction Management (DRM) or spying on users, will ever be accepted by Mozilla. | |
These things are weapons agains us, the users, they will never give away voluntarily. | |
