The Mozilla Manifesto 30.04.18, 00�50 The Mozilla Manifesto 30.04.18, 0050 Mozilla Download Firefox The Mozilla Manifesto Addendum Pledge for a Healthy Internet The open, global internet is the most powerful communication and collaboration resource we have ever seen. It embodies some of our deepest hopes for human progress. It enables new opportunities for learning, building a sense of shared humanity, and solving the pressing problems facing people everywhere. Over the last decade we have seen this promise fulfilled in many ways. We have also seen the power of the internet used to magnify divisiveness, incite violence, promote hatred, and intentionally manipulate fact and reality. We have learned that we should more explicitly set out our aspirations for the human experience of the internet. We do so now. We are committed to an internet that includes all the peoples of the earth — where a person’s demographic characteristics do not determine their online access, opportunities, or quality of experience. We are committed to an internet that promotes civil discourse, human dignity, and individual expression. We are committed to an internet that elevates critical thinking, reasoned argument, shared knowledge, and verifiable facts. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/ Seite 1 von 7 The Mozilla Manifesto 30.04.18, 0050 We are committed to an internet that catalyzes collaboration among diverse communities working together for the common good. Show Your Support An internet with these qualities will not come to life on its own. Individuals and organizations must embed these aspirations into internet technology and into the human experience with the internet. The Mozilla Manifesto and Addendum represent Mozilla’s commitment to advancing these aspirations. We aim to work together with people and organizations everywhere who share these goals to make the internet an even better place for everyone.

    Heidemarie Hanekop, Volker Wittke The Role of Users in Internet-based Innovation Processes The discussion of innovations on the Internet is increasingly focusing on the active role of customers and users. Especially in the development and improvement of digital products and services (such as software, information services or online trade), adapted to consumer demands, we observe an expansion of autonomous activities of customers and users. The division of labour between suppliers and users, producers and consumers is no longer definite. This also brings into question long standing and firmly established boundaries between employment which is still structured by the capitalist law of profit and a private world following other principles. The digital mode of production and distribution, together with the necessary means of production (personal computer) in the hands of numerous private users, provide these users with expanding possibilities to develop and produce digital products and services. In addition, the Internet as a platform of communication facilitates world-wide production with participation of a great number of users ("mass collaboration" – see Tapscott 2006). The development of Open Source Software (OSS) and the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia represent a particularly far-reaching participation of users. It is true that we are dealing with the production of public goods here and therefore specific basic conditions for "mass collaboration". However, concepts like "interactive value creation" (Reichwald/Piller 2006) or "open innovation" (Chesbrough 2003, Chesbrough et al. 2006) propagate an opening of innovation processes for users unrelated to companies also in the framework of commercial value creation, as a central new dimension of promising organisation of innovation processes.

  • FINAL DMA Position Paper.Docx
    Digital Markets Act (DMA) July 2021 position paper on the European Commission's legislative proposal for an EU Digital Markets Act Raegan MacDonald Owen Bennett Udbhav Tiwari At Mozilla, we’re a global community of technologists, thinkers, and builders working together to keep the Internet alive and accessible, so people worldwide can be informed contributors and creators of the Web. We believe this act of human collaboration across an open platform is essential to individual growth and our collective future. Our mission is to ensure the internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all. An Internet that truly puts people first, where individuals can shape their own experience and are empowered, safe and independent. 1 About Mozilla 2 The DMA Offers Promising Legislation 4 Recommended Improvements to the DMA 4 1. Consumer Control 4 2. Interoperability & Core Platform Services 8 3. Innovation not Discrimination 10 4. Meaningful Privacy 13 5. Effective Oversight & Enforcement 13 Conclusion 16 About Mozilla Mozilla has long promoted a decentralised, open, and interoperable internet. Our story started in 1997 with Netscape Navigator, the original consumer browser and a popular browser of the 1990s. In a historic move for competition, Netscape publicly released its new browser engine (called "Gecko") under an open source license to enable others to verify, improve, and freely reuse its source code in their own products. Although Netscape did not last after its acquisition by AOL, the stewards of Gecko created the nonprofit Mozilla Foundation with a mission to preserve the open internet and to continue working on open source browser technology.

  • Statement of Alex Fowler Chief Privacy Officer, Mozilla US Senate Committee On
    Statement of Alex Fowler Chief Privacy Officer, Mozilla US Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation “The Need for Privacy Protections: Is Self-Regulation Adequate?” June 28, 2012 Chairman Rockefeller, Ranking Member Hutchison, and Members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to testify today on the need for privacy protections, the status of self-regulation, and Do Not Track. I am Alex Fowler; I oversee privacy for Mozilla and lead our work on Internet- related policy issues. I’ve spent the last twenty years working on privacy as a technology policy analyst here in Washington, a consumer advocate, in a start-up developing privacy software tools and as a Big 4 consultant advising leading banks, healthcare and technology companies. Mozilla is a global community of people who have been working together since 1998 to build a better Internet.1 As an independent organization, we are dedicated to promoting openness, innovation, and opportunity online.2 Mozilla does not own or operate a search or advertising business. Our mission is to pursue the interests of users, developers and the Web as a whole. Mozilla and its contributors advance our goals by making free, open source technologies for consumers and developers that reflect these values. Our most popular product is the Firefox Web browser used by more than 500 million people worldwide. As a core principle, we believe that the Internet, as the most significant social and technological development of our time, is a precious public resource that must be improved and protected. We also believe that commerce is a vital and beneficial Internet activity.

This splinter project was started by a small group of disgruntled Mozilla developers who were extremely disappointed in the Netscape browser and not satisfied with Mozilla's mediocre successes. We believed in the technology that Mozilla had built in the last 4 years, but we knew that commercial organizations like Netscape and Microsoft did not care about making a better browser because it was not in their financial interest to do so.
