very deceptive title from the source author. OP please insert [, the privacy partner, Onerep's ] in place of "its" to make it clear Mozilla didn't do anything wrong here.
Mozilla could do something wrong, but I entirely read this as Mozilla's CEO had ties to data brokers and ditched Mozilla's privacy partner because of that.
I'm not a native speaker, but the right meaning is the one that came to mind reading this title.
I think context makes it clear, and the most likely meaning. If it was Firefoxs CEO the one at fault, I would think it's a ver weird way of saying it.
But I also see people saying this is why Firefox is the worst and I'm not sure I got it right by accident, people have low reading comprehension or just a massive bias.
No I read the title as Mozilla's CEO being tied to brokers.
A better title might be "Mozilla just ditched a privacy partner whose CEO was found to have ties with data brokers"
But it clearly does not say that if you take your time to think about the words you are reading so clearly you glossed over it without any real reading comprehension going on.......
