• Join us for a Mozilla Meetup with Internet Works on Tuesday, July 21, 2026


    The event will explore how we can collectively create a competitive landscape where middle tech thrives and people have meaningful choice online. We’ll look at legislation currently at play, the ongoing prevalence of deceptive design practices, the arrival of Agentic AI, how healthy competition promotes security, and how we can ensure an open, vibrant web.

    This event will feature expert panel discussions, a fireside chat, and a lightning talk that will dive into competition research.

    A happy hour with drinks and light fare will follow.
