I am a web developer and have consistently pushed Firefox as my browser of choice for several years. I am also a gay man.

Your newly appointed CEO, Brandon Eich, has a history of donating to anti-gay causes. Unfortunately therefore, I will be abandoning Firefox and all Mozilla products and cease my endorsement of your company.

Can you suggest a comparable browser that I can switch to now that your company has chosen to be run by an openly anti-gay CEO?

Thank you. Tony Powell
