Topic: Mitchell Baker

The hosts critique a presentation by Mitchell Baker, chairperson of the Mozilla Foundation, regarding the "physical layers" of the internet. They argue her explanation of net neutrality is "gobbledygook" designed to protect the interests of big tech. They explain the concepts of "peering" and "transit" as the true economic drivers of internet traffic.

The hosts expose the financial relationship between Mozilla and Google, noting that the "non-profit" foundation received hundreds of millions of dollars to make Google the default search engine in Firefox. They highlight Mitchell Baker's $1.1 million compensation package, arguing that Mozilla's "freedom fighter" image is a front for corporate lobbying.
