Encryption keeps the internet safe, for everyone. In a recent blog post, Jennifer Taylor Hodges and Sema Karaman break down why strong encryption isn’t just a technical safeguard, it’s the foundation of trust online. From defending against policy proposals that weaken privacy to advancing open, secure standards through Firefox, Mozilla continues to stand up for encryption as a human right, not a luxury.

About us
A lot of companies say they’re “mission-driven.” Our unique corporate structure guarantees that every decision we make upholds our mission: to ensure the internet remains open and accessible. Beholden to neither shareholders nor investors, Mozilla Corporation is wholly owned by the not-for-profit Mozilla Foundation. Along with our communities of 20,000+ contributors and collaborators, Mozilla Corporation’s staff designs, builds, and distributes software that allows people to enjoy the internet on their own terms. Our flagship product — the Firefox browser — has expanded into a family of products that protects users and alerts them of risks, safeguards passwords and provides a secure VPN (with more to come). By maintaining a safe, open internet we're helping humanity, while also helping the individual humans employed here to reach their personal and professional goals. With a relatively small team serving hundreds of millions of people, a culture of exploration, and a commitment to mentorship, opportunities abound to learn and grow at Mozilla.

In a world flooded with data, algorithms, and noise, what does it take to truly unlearn the stories that shape us? At Mozilla Festival 2025, Chelsea Manning brings her lived experience from the front lines of secrecy and truth to ask: what happens when we dismantle the myths we’ve inherited, about safety, identity, and contro, and rebuild from care, openness, and courage? Her keynote, A World of New Learnings, is a call to see clearly, to listen deeply, and to imagine technology that serves people, not power. ✨ Check out Chelsea’s session and explore the full MozFest schedule: https://mzl.la/4oxpmUB

Welcome to the Post-Naive Internet. Over the last few weeks we've been working on this new research piece for Nothing Personal, Mozilla Foundation’s new online magazine. What started as an observation I shared in an early email turned into a full commission, spearheaded by Bourree Lam and Leonora Chance who saw the potential in diving deeper. Through researching, writing and sketching together with Nick Houde and Paloma Moniz we've carved out what we call the post-naive mindset of people building alternative digital infrastructures. It can be found in projects like Subvert, the collectively owned Bandcamp started by Austin Robey. Metalabel, the platform for collaboratively releasing creative work. Trust, the community and Berlin-based network of utopian conspirators. Future Art Ecosystems, Serpentine’s project for building 21st century cultural infrastructure. Perfectly Imperfect / PI.FYI, the newsletter turned social network for human-led recommendations. And many more. In short, our thesis is: as Silicon Valley makes its pivot into its “Hard Tech” era, where the disrupting force of last decade’s consumer apps will seem innocent compared to the world-dominating mind-intruding superintelligences of the future, the people building alternatives are also entering their post-naive era. Influencing the world today is not about scale anymore. It's about developing the conditions that determine how culture is created, distributed and monetized. As the culture wars are now being fought over digital infrastructure, we need to build alternatives on a radically different set of principles to serve our needs. Read it via link in comments.
