Why would your company get rid of a perfectly brillaint CEO for what he thought about a political issue?

I am uninstalling Firefox and Thunderbird due to your thought control tactics directed against Mr. Eich and others. I hope it was worthwhile for you.

Thank you for providing good products for all the years I was a faithful user.

You don't have your facts straight. Brenden Eich resigned due to the uprising from outside Mozilla, not to any internal pressures. His political contributions were made known while he was CTO and they were well known when he was asked to become CEO. Why would we appoint someone as CEO if we were just going to fire him later for something we already knew about?

StratKruzer, I just wonder what misinformation article(s) you are going by to think he was fired.

Due to California law the donation was public record as you can see in http://projects.latimes.com/prop8/

I guess not every individual and article writer can accept that he decided himself to step down even though he said in a interview the day before that he refused to bow to the outside backlash towards him.

It may be in hindsight but perhaps things might have fair better at the time if he had been made interim CEO initially as they did with Chris Beard (shortly after Brendan made the decision to step down) and was only yesterday announced as the CEO of Mozilla Corp.
