Sir Tim Berners-Lee gave an interview with radio station WBUR about the state of the Web and its future:
Berners-Lee initially imagined the web as a beautiful platform that could help us overcome national and cultural boundaries. He envisioned it would break down silos, but many people today believe the web has created silos.
And he still largely sees the potential of the web, but the web has not turned out to be the complete cyber Utopian dream he had hoped. He's particularly worried about the dark side of social media — places where he says anonymity is being used by "misogynist bullies, by nasty people who just get a kick out of being nasty."
He also identified personal data privacy, the spread of misinformation, and a lack of transparency in online political advertising as major problems with the current Web in a letter marking the World Wide Web's 28th birthday last month.

This is not the reason why Mozilla turns itself into a Chrome clone.
They just want to gather Chrome users. Ask a Chrome user if they would use a feature rich program like Firefox 22 was? The answer is a clear no, because of "bloat"
So what was the solution? Mozilla removed all what Chrome users or simple users would stop from using Firefox.
Rather simple.
