Why isn't there a FOSS browser? Why is building FOSS OSes more popular than FOSS browsers? Edit: Ok, I'll see if I can compile the source. (Firefox is foss)
Do you want Mozilla to rely on Google's money, or make their own money, pick one.
> So let me be really clear: STOP PUTTING ADS IN THE GOD DAMNED WEB BROWSER! I DON'T WANT YOUR VPN! I WILL NEVER WANT YOUR VPN! YES. How can Mozilla be so out of touch? Do they not understand the fact people use their browser because it supports uBlock Origin? We need to repeat this loud and clear until they get it.
If Mozilla doesn't track with this ad, I'm _okay_ with it.
> My new tab window should have no advertisements in it, because you are a nonprofit. Basically, I can't agree with that. As a user who is unable to contribute to the development of Firefox. I'd love to see my favorite product have a stable, independent cash flow that comes from a product that doesn't conflict with the company's culture (i.e., protecting privacy). Anyway, at least, this is much better than the crypto…
It was decent up until the last half. The all caps nature of your post was unnecessary and childish, and while it makes sense to be upset at Mozilla's mismanagement and ads in your browser, you cite needlessly off-topic examples where Mozilla should actually be doing something (aside from the color scheme part).
Does Mozilla really need a VR research team?
If VR is coming to the web, Mozilla need to at least be ready for this, if not leading it.

I use Firefox. I don't use an ad blocker, but I do use Firefox's tracking protection, and first party isolation. If Mozilla doesn't track with this ad, I'm _okay_ with it.
I think a lot of people will be unaware about the fact that in terms of sharing information with your ISP and others, you are no more secure by using "private browsing".
If Mozilla can help educate some of these people, then I cannot fault them for that. But as I started by saying I have not seen the actual ad, just trying to present an alternate view.
But ostensibly the best feature is that the browser will have a “pro” tier with extra features that can be paid for, and a major selling point of Orion is that it has literally zero telemetry, by design. I didn’t imagine a decade ago that I’d be begging to pay for a browser, but here I am. I would love to pay Mozilla for Firefox if it meant that I knew I wasn’t going to be advertised VPN software.
Sure, I could pay for a Firefox VPN, but would that make the ads go away? I’m not sure. I would rather pay for Firefox, the browser, and have no ads or studies, but I can’t.
