Choice Campaign
The European Commission has ruled that users of a Windows PC in Europe who are still browsing the Web with IE browser will see a Browser Choice screen to make an active choice for a new browser.
In conjunction with the settlement and the "ballot screen" and the "browserchoice.mozilla.org" (See bug 537227) projects, Mozilla's Marketing community will launch the "Open To Choose" campaign to promote further awareness about the choice users have. The campaign will function primarily as a blogging campaign on a new Mozilla website.
Goals
- Make people aware of browser choice and why it’s important
- Ensure people can actively make an informed choice – “Rock the Vote”
- Create or amplify association with a Web that has human values
- Start a longer-term story arc, provide on-ramps for people to engage with Mozilla
Strategy
- Lead by our beliefs: we’re helping people take control over their experience and be who they want to be
- Create a strong high-level core framework that enables local autonomy
