    I’m pretty sure you can donate to Mozilla, are you saying that donations to Mozilla don’t accomplish what we might want? I only know a little about how much Mozilla sucks so I’m ready to learn more.

      There are two interlinked Mozillas: the Mozilla Foundation is what you can donate to, but the Mozilla Corporation is what develops Firefox. No matter how much you donate, that money cannot (or will not) be transferred to Firefox development.

      Mozilla’s recent history includes privacy flub after financial management misstep, so here’s a few links in no particular order of severity or chronology:

      • https://krebsonsecurity.com/2025/02/nearly-a-year-later-mozilla-is-still-promoting-onerep/
      • https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/05/mozilla-foundation-lays-off-30-staff-drops-advocacy-division/
      • https://smoshed.substack.com/p/ublock-origin-lite-maker-ends-firefox
      • https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/02/07/crypto-wallet-security-layer-webacy-raises-4m
      • https://mastodon.social/@stevetex/113162099798398758

      Each of these are a little rabbit hole on their own.

      Would you like to know more?

        Reminder that Krebs is an asshole who responds to criticism by doxxing the accounts of other security researchers.
