In alignment with our commitment to an open and accessible internet, Mozilla will reinstate previously restricted listings in Russia. Our initial decision to temporarily restrict these listings was made while we considered the regulatory environment in Russia and the potential risk to our community and staff.
[Off-topic] As I was reading the comments from a related thread, I noticed that the comments there can be tagged by the community. (See Alfman’s comment, being tagged as “verbose”). That would be an amazing feature here in the Fediverse forums/link-sharers.
[On-topic] I wonder if Mozilla was buying time to retract its staff from Russia? Even if not, I respect their ability to revert a decision in a transparent way, and apologise to the community without sounding like a corporate “apology”. It shows that they actually care about the principles that they’re babbling about, even if they violated them with the temporary removal.
Re your off-topic aside, it looks more like that user has been tagged as verbose (whether that mean long comments or a high volume of posts isn’t clear).
Yup, you’re right - the tag is for the user, not the comment as I incorrectly said.
Either way it would be a neat feature IMO. (I’d be probably among the first being tagged “verbose”, but I’m OK with this - other people could be tagged as “informative”, “fun” etc.)
Do you mean firing Russian employees? And preventing other employees from ever travelling to Russia, even for private reasons?
I don’t think that’s very practical 😅
More like asking them what to do, that wouldn’t put either their heads or Mozilla’s values in the guillotine. Looking for options.
That’s just conjecture from my part, mind you.
