Sure, but it's probably a good thing he's not at Mozilla now, because he would have also pulled Firefox down the same path Brave has gone with micropayments using BATs, which isn't exactly uncontroversial.
See the Tom Scott and BAT incident. Kinda shady how it was handled.
The entire development team would have walked if he stayed. Nobody wants to work with someone who hasn't done anything technically relevant in 30 years and can't seem to stop pushing his far-right views in places where they are irrelevant.
Just a few weeks ago he went on an anti-Fauci and anti-mask conspiracy rant in the thread about him appearing on Lex Fridman's podcast, when nobody was even discussing politics.
The entire development team would not have walked. I know this because many told me, and even sent letters and cards after I left. But such a claim is false on its face: people do not all act in unison in such a circumstance.
Your second paragraph is easily disproven. I didn't bring up Fauci, someone else did to derail the discussion about my conversation with Lex:
I've flagged your comment here, it is either dishonest or else just sloppily malicious in the wishful thinking mode with which you led in the first sentence.
