Mozilla Hits Back at Browser Security Claim

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the community-loves-responsive-developers dept.

UltimaGuy writes "Mozilla has reacted to the Symantec report issued on Monday which said serious vulnerabilities were being found in Mozilla's browsers faster than in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Tristan Nitot, president of Mozilla Europe, hit back by claiming on Monday that when a vulnerability is found Mozilla's 'ability to react, find a solution and put it into the user's hands is better than Microsoft.'"

    When I was a little kid, I was a bully. I pushed other weak little kids around and took their lunch money. I'm not proud of that, but just saying.

    I got older, and they got older. And when they started getting to be about the same size as me (I was big for my age in elementary school), they started fighting back. But they didn't fight back with fists and bats. They knew what they'd get if they tried that with me and my friends. Rather, they fought back with whining and posturing. They would take every little perceived slight to heart and try to come back with the cleverest, most hurtful response. But, you see, it didn't affect me, like water off a duck's back.

    I wasn't in any competition with them. I was out of their league. I was so far ahead of them in smarts and brawn that I simply didn't have to mess with them anymore once out of middle school. The slights they perceived were of their own creation. Their inferiority complex (which I may have helped create) made them react like whiners instead of winners (and there's your soundbite for today).

      Sorry, he can't! The Torah (which Jesus himself followed) clearly says that for sins against man, you have to seek forgiveness from those you hurt (and make them whole!) personally. Saying "oopsie! I'm really, really, really, sorry Jesus! Now get me a good seat in Heaven" is a flawed, dangerous, and immature point of view.
