Mozilla just ditched its privacy partner because its CEO is tied to data brokers
Facni, After appointing its new CEO, Mozilla has turned around, in the good way.
Powderhorn, 
What happened to due diligence? This is the right move given the situation, but the situation shouldn’t have had the opportunity to come up.
Hirom, Mozilla should also investigate it own processes to understand how that happened, and question the person who approved this partnership.
Then publish a postmortem analysis. This may earn back some trust from their users.
PeriodicallyPedantic, Wait… Who is “it” in “it’s CEO”??? Which CEO has ties?
I guess I’ll have to actually read the article.

The CEO of Onerep had founded multiple brokers.
What isn’t mentioned anywhere except the original investigation, it also claims to be a Virginia-based company but is operating out of Belarus and Cyprus.

What did the article say?
PeriodicallyPedantic, It was the other company CEO with dubious ties.
