Mozilla Acquires Pocket, Will Open Source Pocket Code

Mozilla had previously made Pocket a mandatory part of Firefox and that really annoyed a lot of people because Pocket's business model was to spy on users for profit. This acquisition gives me hope that the spying will be eliminated, making Pocket - which is a genuinely useful tool - safe for all to use.
