Well, if users don't the source of the actual work, then none of the forks survive. I don't know what people think are going to happen.

Shitting on Mozilla seems to be a competitor sport around here sometimes, and it's fucking self-defeating. In 5 years, there will only be the Chromium engine, and then Google will shut down the opensource side like they pretty much did with Android. And then we're truly fucked.
