Matt Stoller has spun up a small initiative and is paying a reporter specifically to attend the trial in person if you want to follow along.

FWIW the "www.bigtechontrial.com" domain does not work for me.

Works OK for me. It goes to another Substack site.

Works good now - before it redirected to a register.com holding site!

First they need to stop wasting money on silly side projects and funding activists and political activities

they will have to stop if $500 mn in payments stop....they might have to stop altogether lol

You are mixing up the Mozilla Corporation and the Mozilla Foundation.

Which one can I donate to that will spend the money on only FF and nothing else?

The foundation shouldn't be wasting money throwing activist festivals like this https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/blog/announcing-activists-...

Neither

An equivalent of a trip to the theatre.
