    The Mozilla foundation makes a lot of money. It’s the Mozilla Corp who needs Google money. People would gladly donate to Firefox but they can’t. If google money dries up and no other way is possible to profit from search deals (unlikely, as only Google is being procecuted), Mozilla Corp can be absorbed into the foundation. Then just fire the stupid expensive CEO. Suddenly you have millions.

    Does anybody think that Mozilla will attempt to win their community back and start being good stewards of the money they are given?

    They’ve had ample time to wash themselves of Google’s money. They have been too busy justifying their salaries with useless initiatives and acquisitions, when all people care about is Firefox.

    When can we directly donate to Firefox’s development?

      No.

      No matter what you think of Eich. The Eich era of Firefox/Mozilla was their golden years. I miss them.
