Unreal Firefox Message!!!!
 

I'm a member of a dating site that apparently firefox now doesn't approve of. I have never seen such a blatant disregard for basic moral principals. This is the message I got going to the site:
Hello there, Mozilla Firefox user. Pardon this interruption of your OkCupid experience.

Mozilla’s new CEO, Brendan Eich, is an opponent of equal rights for gay couples. We would therefore prefer that our users not use Mozilla software to access OkCupid.

Politics is normally not the business of a website, and we all know there’s a lot more wrong with the world than misguided CEOs. So you might wonder why we’re asserting ourselves today. This is why: we’ve devoted the last ten years to bringing people—all people—together. If individuals like Mr. Eich had their way, then roughly 8% of the relationships we’ve worked so hard to bring about would be illegal. Equality for gay relationships is personally important to many of us here at OkCupid. But it’s professionally important to the entire company. OkCupid is for creating love. Those who seek to deny love and instead enforce misery, shame, and frustration are our enemies, and we wish them nothing but failure.

If you want to keep using Firefox, the link at the bottom will take you through to the site.

However, we urge you to consider different software for accessing OkCupid:

sounds more like okcupid doesnt support your browser, the way u mad eit sound was the opposite.


well it sounds like it lets you use firefox anyways, so just use it and continue findin all the hott babes

This could become ramped. How many progressive sites have an acceptance of gay lifestyles? Are they going to block them all. Doesn't sound like a good biz model for firefox. I may be going back to Explorer

No. That's not the case at all.

please be more vague and dont provide anymore context or info

I just read a little about this. Sounds like even Mozilla employees are calling for that guy's resignation.

i cant believe this is real lol. i dont understand their wording why they say ' Equality for gay relationships is personally important to many of us here at OkCupid.' it seems like that doesnt make any sense to me

maybe its a hacker creating lulz

That sentence doesn't seem all that hard to comprehend to me.

I'm fairly shocked that a guy in his position would come out with stuff like this. Brendan Eich is a fairly big deal in the IT/software world as he invented JavaScript.

That said, I don't use Firefox anyway.

so okcupid is sendin the message about firefox. but you can just keep using firefox anyways as it says in the message.

news flash - ppl have differing opinions on social issues. as long as it doesnt prevent u from using the site i dont think its a big deal

Only a matter of time before some gays start some movement to get people to stop using firefox.

maybe they will shut down firefox like how they took chik-fil-a out of business??

Breaking news:

The gay rights community is lobbying for legislation that states all business owners in America must be openly gay or at least openly bisexual. More at 11.

Firefox is a very successful brand. You don't need bigots making news

LOL. no one else either

what?

I think Chik-Fil-A will do just fine on their own with that.

not if i have anythin to do with it, like have u even had their chik-fil-a suace, its to die for

I don't eat chicken so I wont be trying it anytime soon. My co-worker swears by the place and told a protester once that the only thing he would go gay for is Chik-Fil-A.

I will die before I let anybody close down chik-fil-a!

What the heck is the basis for this? CFA's revenue has steadily increased every year for like the past decade and they are slowly taking over the fast food chicken market from KFC. There's an article that I wont post because I'm on mobile, but CFA has actually outsold KFC despite having less than half as many physical restaurants as KFC. CFA is doing just fine and I am proud to be a loyal customer, as their chicken is by far the best you can get in fast food.

P.S. I lied here's the article:

Damn settle down homophobe. :p: Like I said I don't even touch the ****, my opinion is invalid Mr Fil-A.

If you knew how good it was, you would never joke about it.

Checkmate atheist, I'm 100% for gay rights and gay marriage and that whole shabang. You just made a drastic assumption based solely on the fact that I love Chick-Fil-A's chicken. What a douche.

i just didnt get what all the homosexuals takin kissin pics in front of chik-fil-a was really gonna do. or why anyone cares about the political thoughts of a chicken sandwich place lol


anyways stonetone it seems to me like okcupid brought up the issue and not firefox

Well yeah.

I found it quite stupid that they basically were outright bullying the customers who have no say in the business format and ideologies.

just downloaded chrome. **** that bigot

It's terrible though.

You must be like me. I could never eat that crap, but I know many do. That's cool

I don't really feel like morals are too important to me in terms of what browser I use.

'Bout time. It's so much quicker. Well at least for me.

They are a huge international player. They move the measurements

That Firefox crowd eh? Gone to the bigots if you ask me.
