Some conservatives do not support the Mozilla Foundation or use any of its products because it is too liberal. This was seen by the public most recently when they forced CEO Brendan Eich to resign for donating $1,000 of his own money to the Proposition 8 campaign. [1] Mozilla officially apologized for Eich's action on April third, 2014, saying that "Mozilla prides itself on being held to a different standard and, this past week, we didn’t live up to it. We know why people are hurt and angry, and they are right: it’s because we haven’t stayed true to ourselves. We didn’t act like you’d expect Mozilla to act."[2]
