Before you attack Mozilla….. are you using it as your primary browser? I.e are you supporting them already?

Do you believe Mozilla should be able to pay its bills? If you’re not happy with this way of raising revenue, what else do you suggest?



I don't care about Mozilla. I just want to support Firefox.


Oh yes, it's my only browser. I'd like to pay for it. Even though I live in an area where they aren't presenting ads yet.


Yes, since it was named Phoenix. Id pay $50 every five years or so for a new version. But for that five years they only introduce bugfixes and introduce zero UI changes.

I don't have a clue on how to read such a statement correctly. But what I am seeing there is over 800 million USD worth of revenue. For one year.

If that is not enough to build one browser that is not crammed with ads then we are all doomed anyway.


how do you support firefox, b/c there is no direct way at all.


I suggest they act like a non-for-profit and live within their means from the mountain of cash they already have.
