This is pretty cringe, it sounds like an add-on 4chan would make ironically not the actual developer of the browser who should, you know, be actually developing the browser.


It's really interesting how we are not able to think about an organization differently from how we think about a single individual. Our brain it's sure strange.


Will they got rid of a lot of people who thought differently.


They target English, German and French. This is the English word filter list (singular only):

  re('whore'),
  re('slut'),
  re('snatch'),
  re('thot'),
  re('ho'),
  re('cunt'),
  re('twat'),
  re('transtrender'),
  re('shemale'),
  re('squaw'),
  re('milf'),
  re('welfare queen'),
  re('yummy mommy'),
  re('battleaxe'),
  re('hooker'),
  re('prostitute'),
  re('bi[ao]tch'),
  re('be[ao]tch'),



Sorry, but this is just sad.


Nah. This is people who are being harrassed making fun of the idiots. It won't solve any problem, but it helps with a mindset to deal with it.


I’m sorry, how does changing yummy mommy to boss make fun of anyone?


The Polite Type did it before (without browser extension)

So this what they're doing after firing the MDN team. Good to know.


Glad I never donated to Mozilla.
