First, I have never heard of RadiumOne or this guy, and I suspect that most other people have not, either. While most people have heard of Mozilla.
Second, most people have absolutely nothing to do with this company. I could threaten to boycott RadiumOne's products, but I don't even know what they do. While Mozilla (or DropBox) is a place I can react against.
(I didn't like Eich being forced out, FWIW. I'm just pointing out the practical distinctions.)
Actually I am pretty sure I heard of this guy through HN a few years ago, he was pretty famous for starting two ad selling firms under the age of 20 and selling out for big bucks.
Even back then I got a bad vibe(the usual Jobsian psychopatic one) out of the gushing articles written about him.
