It could be sold to someone who is a worse steward of web standards than Google
-
It could lead to Google exerting far more influence/control on Firefox while still funding Firefox.

As someone who defends Firefox frankly? Good. Firefox needs better competition and to think long and hard about its relationships now. Google search was acceptable because of google’s absolute dominance. That money was basically survival for a long time. Now? Figure it out Mozilla 🤷♂️

Like maybe cut those executive salaries down a significant amount to start Mozilla because holy shit does Mozilla pay it’s executives a lot vs how much the company makes.

This is the biggest thing stopping me from donating to Firefox, or Mozilla in general. CEO salary should not be that high for basically a not-for-profit.

Maybe just need new executives entirely since the ones they have often seem consistently out of touch with the userbase.
