What’s a Firefox?

What’s a Firefox?

On this week’s If Then, Slate’s April Glaser and Will Oremus talk with the executive director of Mozilla about how Firefox competes with Chrome and the biggest threats to the Open Web. They break down the fallout from the FCC’s 3-2 vote to kill net neutrality and what it means for mega-mergers like Fox and Disney. And they speculate on the motivations behind Uber’s misdeeds, why Apple’s AirPods are sold out, and why the Koch brothers are trying to kill municipal broadband.

Stories discussed on the show:

BuzzFeed: Uber Accused Of Espionage, Bribery, Hacking, And More In Bombshell Letter

Mozilla: Privacy Not Included: A Guide to Make Shopping for Connected Gifts Safer, Easier, and Way More Fun

If Then’s “Don’t Close My Tabs” recommendations:
