You're saying this as if AI stuff won't just be more relevant over time.

Yes, I'd much rather have Mozilla make our future AI tools than yet another for-profit company

To be fair on Mozilla, it's practically a for profit company, donations make up about 1-2% of their income, with most of their money coming from having google as default search engine

That’s got nothing to do with being for profit…

oh yeah, also the mozilla foundation (non-profit) has 100% share in two for-profit corporations, mozilla corporation and MZLA technologies corporation, and all three are run by the same ceo

so technically it is non-profit, but it at least seems very blurry

Those are for their VPN and other services, not Mozilla Firefox or their contribution to web standards. The foundation is separate from their for-profit tools.
