You know perfectly well the circumstances of your departure were reported in the press. I added only the opinion the opposition was predictable.

Your vague complaints about Mozilla's statements stopped short of claiming they were false. And a legal agreement allowing 1 party to publish substantial falsehoods without recourse would be extraordinary. The most reasonable inference is Mozilla's statements were substantially true. Even if statements by both parties are assumed incomplete and 1 sided.

> a legal agreement allowing 1 party to publish substantial falsehoods without recourse

Wouldn't that include most employee termination agreements, where the (newly ex-) employee has to keep their mouth shut regardless of what their employer does or did?

"And a legal agreement allowing 1 party to publish substantial falsehoods"

Gag contracts I have seen, gag the person leaving and getting the money, not the company. Companies have the challenge that thousands of employees can't say something, it's hard to enforce and easy to trip over and get burned.
