Hi everyone, The internet has changed a lot since 2004 when Firefox began as a community project. Today, Firefox remains at the forefront of championing privacy, open innovation and choice. And while the last 20 years have been transformative, the best is yet to come. We’re thrilled to announce that...

It’s possible to submit questions already. Getting a feeling there’ll be some uncomfortable ones; we’ll see if they dare to engage with those.

A lot of the frustration that people have stems from Firefox’s deeply flawed financing model, whereby the focus can never be solely put on the quality of the browser. Personally, with Google now being recognized as a monopolist and Mozilla in danger of losing 85% of its funding, I hope they can adopt Thunderbird’s financing model (i.e. donations).

Now that they’re not doing fundraising for lawmaking and/or grassroots activism because their advocacy team shut down, I hope they’ll get a few people together and start to raise money from the user base.

This could be a very positive change for Mozilla if they play it right.
