The new CEO of Mozilla, which makes the excellent Firefox Browser, is undeniably qualified for the position. He invented JavaScript. He was one of the founders of Mozilla and was originally the chief architect. He has been the Chief Technology Officer of Mozilla since 2005. But now that he is CEO, there is a movement to force him to step down because he supported traditional marriage by donating to the Prop 8 campaign in 2008. Somehow this didnt disqualify him from being CTO but all of a sudden it apparently disqualifies him from being CEO? Remember the Hollywood Blacklists of the 1940s and 1950s? Well, welcome to the new Technology Blacklists of the 2010s. Princeton Professor Robert P. George, who I respect a great deal, says in a Facebook post that if those who believe in traditional marriage are not fit to be officers of Mozilla, then those who support traditional marriage are also not fit to be Mozilla customers and that they should delete the Firefox Browser from their computers. independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/mozilla-ceo-brendan-eich-urged-to-step-down-over-donation-to-antigay-marriage-campaign-9222453.html
