if they manage to make it an actual good product and also not host it in the US, they might even be able to pull it off

They are thinking of having the user choose the juridiction. So far their testing is hosted in the EU apparently.

Until the lawsuit between Steve Teixeira and Mozilla reveals the truth, I'm going to withhold my judgment about how fascistic Mozilla was internally.

Teixeira claimed Mozilla conducted an audit that found them pretty lacking in the equality department IIRC, and Mozilla's own lawyers disputed many things but not that.

I'd need to be able to choose a non-US server too. And even then, all the major tech firms breached EU laws by later transferring data back to the US. But if I had to trust an American company Mozilla would be among the better choices.

Isn't Mozilla a US company?

Somehow I don't see them leaving the place where they do business
