How greedy can Mozilla Foundation get?



Read this and be amazed!

When Opera had ads, they labeled it evil. Now Mozilla has a commercial outfit. They charge for support if you want it. And they even sell one of their applications (DeskZilla) to companies! Talk about corrupting the concept of Open Source… Red Hat does charge for their support… But they do not call themselves an Open Source Foundation!

Maybe I should put ads on this blog and transfer that money to the development of the software called Opera Browser…

    Hello. I am the founder of the company that created Deskzilla. Thanks for noticing our commercial non-open-source application. Please be aware that we are not Mozilla, as clearly said on every page of our website. I will appreciate if you remove the line from this blog that is offensive both to Mozilla and to our company, and avoid hasty conclusions next time.

    Best regards,
    Igor
