>Brendan Eich is making a comeback.

>He's the creator of JavaScript and one of the founders of Mozilla, the organisation behind the Firefox browser, so he knows a thing or two about the web.

>But in 2014, after being appointed CEO of the Mozilla Corporation, he found himself at the middle of a firestorm. Eich had donated to Proposition 8, a failed Californian ballot initiative that aimed to define marriage as between one man and one woman. When news of the donation became public, he was highly criticised, and ultimately resigned from the role.

Eich is now launching a new startup, called Brave, that aims to "fix" a problem with the modern internet — adverts.

It fucking is if it is a federally recognized institution, faggot.

Change marriage into something that has no legal or financial meaning and then you can define it however the fuck you want.

Tax code gives breaks to married couples. Therefore there needs to be a federal definition, and oversight, of marriage.

Q.E.D.

>>52527694
That is incorrect.

Ads will be based on user selected interests.
Not browsing history.

That is pretty much the point: give users control over which ads they receive.

They used terror tactics and subversion to remove it from the list, and then fifth cloumned the entire organization.

Nice to know that /g/ is still full of libertarian retards.

Marriage has been an institution between men and women for all of human history.
So saying "same-sex marriage" is an oxymoron. You might as well talk about a downward rise or wet fire.

The equal protection under the law clause does not apply, because homosexual men are just as free to marry a woman as heterosexual men are. They've always had the same right to marriage.
