It sounds like a bullshit excuse, to me.

If they wanted to cover their ass, they could have changed their ToS any number of different ways than what they went with.

Let's not be naïve. All corporations are the enemy, including Mozilla.

    To be fair they are a company with bills to pay and they have to shield themselves from being fined or sued. At this point I assume almost everything has been backdoored to hell and I'd rather use the product from the company with better overall terms and principles.

    i'm a person with bills to pay, but if i paid those bills by endangering people, i'd be a bad person.

    corporations exist to protect people from the financial and legal repercussions of their business activity.

    they should not exist, and so, I will celebrate if Mozilla goes into bankruptcy.

    we do not need them. control of firefox should be in the hands of a not-for-profit group, not a company.
