How can a 501 (c)3 non-profit have so much revenue and stil be non-profit? Read their website manifesto....
Per Wiki:
The Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit organization that exists to support and lead the open source Mozilla project. Founded in July 2003, the organization sets the policies that govern development, operates key infrastructure and controls Mozilla trademarks and copyrights.
It owns a taxable subsidiary: the Mozilla Corporation, which employs many Mozilla developers and coordinates releases of the Mozilla Firefox web browser and Mozilla Thunderbird email client. The subsidiary is 100% owned by the parent, and therefore follows the same non-profit principles. The Mozilla Foundation was founded by the Netscape-affiliated Mozilla Organization, and is funded almost exclusively by Google Inc.
In 2006, the Mozilla Foundation received US$66.8 million in revenues, of which US$61.5 million is attributed to “search royalties” from Google.
The Mozilla Foundation is guided by the Mozilla Manifesto, which lists 10 principles which Mozilla believes “are critical for the Internet to continue to benefit the public good as well as commercial aspects of life.”

The fact that Mozilla Executive Chairwoman Mitchell Baker fell all over herself to effectively condemn him in her blog post demonstrates that Mozilla would prefer to bow to bullying tactics of the left instead of standing up for freedom of speech. It takes courage to take a stand. Mozilla failed.
Mozilla Executive Chairwoman Mitchell Baker was trained as a lawyer. She coordinates business and policy issues and sits on both the Mozilla Foundation Board of Directors and the Mozilla Corporation Board of Directors. In 2005, Time magazine included her in its annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world and she has been affectionately given the title of “Chief Lizard Wrangler” at the Mozilla Corporation.
From Mitchell Baker’s personal Blog:
On Mozilla’s Support for Marriage Equality
March 29th, 2014
Last week I wrote that Mozilla’s commitment to inclusiveness for our LGBT community, and for all underrepresented groups, will not change. Acting for or on behalf of Mozilla, it is unacceptable to limit opportunity for *anyone* based on the nature of sexual orientation and/or gender identity. This is not only a commitment, it is our identity.
This left unanswered the question of whether equality explicitly includes marital equality. I want to clear that up. Speaking as the Chairwoman, I want to speak clearly on behalf of both the Mozilla Corporation and the Mozilla Foundation: Mozilla supports equality for all, explicitly including LGBT equality and marriage equality.

if not MS-IE or Chrome, what is/are alternative(s) besides Firefox???
Sorry, Been using FF since version .1. My ‘bookmarks’ file is over 15 years old. Wouldn’t switch when the faggot mafia were screaming about it. WOn’t switch now. It’s a tool. It works. Don’t feel like changing.
I use Firefox. Any recommendations on an alternative?
I will be uninstalling Firefox shortly, and I have been using it for years, since 1.5!
I looked around and decided on Comodo Dragon browser to replace it.
Install the XMARKS extension first on Firefox, to sync your bookmarks (I have over a thousand in various folders), and then install XMARKS onto Comodo Dragon and make sure you get a good sync there as well.
Then - Firefox - adios muchacho... for pulling a bone-head jerk move like this.
OMG, another boycott. I have no life unless there’s something to boycott, yippee!
