This principle was actually reworded in the last round in light of the Webmaker initiative, to focus on "shaping the Internet" rather than "shaping experiences". While I understand the marketing around "be a maker" that we are using, telling people without that understanding that they should be able to "make the Internet" isn't nearly as clear IMO. > I really like the idea of bringing Mozillians directly into this last > principle by using a word like "our" here. The Manifesto is designed to be "signable" by people who aren't Mozillians. That doesn't necessarily mean your idea is wrong, but we need to be aware that this document has a wider purpose.
