That's what I've heard, they have a history of making things right if there are any issues

Great to see

If you get the game from a source other than the playstore, it might not be able to prompt you?

Woah, good that he survived and it's impressive he continued to work in the field afterwards

As a researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, Russian SSR, Anatoli Bugorski worked with the largest particle accelerator in the Soviet Union, the U-70 synchrotron. On 13 July 1978, Bugorski was checking a malfunctioning piece of equipment when the safety mechanisms failed. Bugorski was leaning over the equipment when he stuck his head in the path of the 76 GeV proton beam. Reportedly, he saw a flash "brighter than a thousand suns" but did not feel any pain. The beam passed through the back of his head, the occipital and temporal lobes of his brain, the left middle ear, and out through the left hand side of his nose. The exposed parts of his head received a local dose of 200,000 to 300,000 roentgens (2,000 to 3,000 Sieverts). Bugorski understood the severity of what had happened, but continued working on the malfunctioning equipment, and initially opted not to tell anyone what had happened.

FTC to Ban BetterHelp from Revealing Consumers’ Data, Including Sensitive Mental Health Information, to Facebook and Others for Targeted Advertising

I've also heard that the therapy they provide is mediocre, from friends more involved with mental health stuff

My understanding is that Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit organization that focuses on open & accessible internet, and they have a for-profit arm that helps fund those initiatives.

So it's possible that the for-profit arm might axe projects that aren't working / not bringing in money, since otherwise it would put their wider goals at risk.

Mozilla's core purpose isn't to make profit, and so some projects won't (and shouldn't) be focussed on making money. I don't think people would trust the recommendations if there was a profit aspect mixed in

Our mission is to ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all. An Internet that truly puts people first, where individuals can shape their own experience and are empowered, safe and independent
