    y’all need to stand up against racism and discrimination

    Felt kind of out of nowhere. How does a web browser stand up to racism?

      i was talking about both mozilla and firefox… and the internet has plenty to do with that as a communication device for good.

      instead of using the internet for war and hate, use it for unity and openness.

        How would a web browser achieve that? The only thing I can think of is for the browser to choose what sort of web content should be filtered out and what should actually be displayed to the user, which I think we all agree is not what you would want your browser to choose.

          the web browser isn’t a sentient entity; the web browser is developed by people who are part of an organisation with an ethos.

            I think the question was:

            List the steps to be taken by the people at Mozilla to achieve this. Then think if those can reasonably be accomplished.
