Test Pilot is closing? Does that mean that the Mozilla Corporation no longer has a backdoor in Firefox through which they can install plugins in the same way they installed the Mr. Robot advertisement plugin some time ago? https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/16/16784628/mozilla-mr-robo...

Holy crap, I don't remember hearing about this. Yeah I'd rather not have that. Reminds me of the Ubuntu hubris and their built-in ads.
You just have to wonder what it is that makes big open-source companies so disconnected from their userbase. Still better than Google in practice, but Google's PR is much better.
