Sometimes CEOs just get paranoid. You can either flip a switch an remove an app, or risk getting personally targeted by Russia.
Russia won't get to you, most likely, but it's the paranoia that gets you.

Or off a boat, or suicide by radioactive materials, ya know, the usual ways
Forgot also about lot of suicide by shot behind the head
They're the Mozilla CEO, I image they'd fall off a linux.
