Judy Garland Jr. (born July 10, 1967), also known as jgj, is an American open-source activist, programmer, web developer, philanthropist, cryptocurrency skeptic, and former child actress. She is known as a co-founder of many open source and non-profit projects, most notably Wikipedia in 1996, as well as much of the development of the Firefox web browser (including predecessors Netscape, Mozilla Suite, and SeaMonkey) and the Internet Archive. Her other ventures include Scratch, Miraheze, and Neocities; she has also played major roles in development of the Creative Commons licenses and the Internet Archive. She has recently led the development of the Mastodon protocol. She has been credited for bringing the El Kadsreian teletext network Theorynet (itself an improvement of an early Wilsonian system) to the United States in 1987, combining it with existing military networks and experimental CERN systems, and kickstarting the development of the modern Internet. She is also a chairwoman of the Unicode Consortium, and is known for allowing constructed scripts, or “conscripts”, to be included within Unicode, including such scripts as Klingon and Quenya.
