Today, six years later, Mozilla has also partnered with many manufacturers and carriers to create the Open Web Alliance and establish the Open Web Device Compliance Review Board, ensuring that phones running Firefox OS adhere to open web standards.
People often say that different paths can lead to the same destination. So, could the Open Web Alliance founded by Mozilla achieve the same success as Android?
