    Google pays mozilla iirc around 400m a year, loosing 85% of that yeah, that sucks, sure. but yeah, there is enough to sustain firefox and thunderbird and some other things. If not, something is dreadfully wrong.

      The numbers you have quoted so far don’t make a dent in the 400M though - we haven’t even reached 1% yet. How much do you think Mozilla is spending on Firefox? How much of that is “extra” per your back of the envelope math?

        Appologies, I am not a tax auditor, I don’t have enough spare time to go comb through mozilla’s finances to list out every single expense mozilla has. If mozilla can’t make do on that funding, they maybe they deserve to shut it’s doors for good afterall.
