The decisions taken by the Mozilla Corporation for the past years make them look like they've completely lost control of themselves. I don't feel like I can trust them at all.

For privacy purposes I hope most ISPs do this.

He can run whatever OS he wants and have whatever kind of control he wants over his own hardware. Just don't expect to watch Netflix in HD.

Practically nobody runs a custom ROM or Linux in the desktop, and if you do, that's a self-inflicted wound.
