In 2002 Steve Jobs apparently wanted to name Apple’s upcoming browser “Freedom” instead of Safari. Former Engineering Director of Internet Technologies Don Melton said:

Steve spent some time trying that one out on all of us. He may have liked it because it invoked positive imagery of people being set free. And, just as possible and positive, it spoke to our own freedom from Microsoft and Internet Explorer, the company and browser we depended on at the time.
