If anything, shouldn't the fallout reinforce trust that it won't happen again? Kind of like how plane crashes actually make planes safer.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work that way in this case. For example, there was an incident just a couple of months ago that was discussed here:

"Firefox displayed a pop-up ad for Mozilla VPN over an unrelated page" (>>36077360 )

"Mozilla stops Firefox fullscreen VPN ads after user outrage" (>>36085642 )

That's another incident that just shouldn't have ever happened to begin with, in my opinion.

That's not great, but it's not the same as the Mr Robot thing. That much has already stopped. This is a different thing that similarly won't happen again now that backlash has occurred. A different cause of a plane crash that has now been analyzed to prevent in the future, going back to that analogy.

The underlying cause in both of those cases seems to me to be them doing something that fundamentally should not have been done in the first place.

It's the lack of foresight and the lack of good judgment that I don't see getting fixed.

Both of those incidents should have been completely avoidable with even the most minimal of forethought.
