Okay, but this is supposed to be free software. Free as in freedom.
Free as in no trademarks, copyrights, etc. Free as in you can do with
it what you wish, provided whatever you do with it is also free (well,
at least when a GPL or similar license is used). It's really a deeply
important issue, and Mozilla here is acting ridiculously. It should
either be free or it should not be, not something outrageously "in
between."
