I believe the subtle point is that Struensee did these actions for the good of the people, only for the people to then use these new tools against him. I'm not sure we know of Struensee's motivations, but we can see that he advoca

Or at least hire review coordinators who can manage the program effectively. Our volunteers review 15,000+ loans a month. Happy to share insights with Mozilla on how to run an effective volunteer community and keep the pipeline flowing.
