This is not even close to good enough.

I will continue to refuse to use Firefox out of general principle.

How about Iceweasel or GNU Icecat? It's free software, man. You have your anger focused on the wrong things.
[shrug] I guess I could use either of those, but Chrome suits me fine, thanks.
Chrome is immensely worse because it is proprietary and has spyware included.
What do you truly know about the political views of the individuals involved in producing the other web browsers?
Far less than what I know about that of Eich.
So what is good enough?

That Eich resign over his personal opinions? That he abandon his personal ethics for business reasons? That he demonstrate his good faith by paying a modern-day indulgence to an advocacy group?

Or is Eich now irredeemable?

Whether or not Eich is redeemable is unknown. In the meantime, I refuse to support any company that he leads. It's that simple.
