Mozilla has just deleted the following:

“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”

“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

    I don’t think you’re being unreasonable and in truth I share your concerns. Forks are doing a good job at refining the experience but should the Firefox project collapse, I doubt any fork can meaningfully continue the development needed for such a huge and complex project without the full-time and experienced development team who have been working on the project for an incredibly long time.

    I wish Mozilla could figure out a more powerful way to generate revenue that doesn’t require advertising in any form.

    I wonder if a yearly fundraising drive like Wikipedia could help. They generated $250Mil+ last time they did.

      Yeah, that’s probably right, unfortunately.

      I wonder if a yearly fundraising drive like Wikipedia could help.

      I doubt it would hurt, at least! They do get some money, <$20M… Which isn’t close to being enough, of course, but it does prove there’s at least some interest in supporting Mozilla financially, on the users’ side.
