I have mixed feelings about this move. On one hand I like that Mozilla gets additional source of income to support their mission. Plus people will certainly benefit from using a vpn service. On the other hand though this will redirect people to a particular provider that may not necessarily meet their needs. Proton VPN offers a decent service, but not sure if the best one. I'd be much more comfortable with this if they were suggesting multiple different providers.

And let's not forget that this is also a jump into the abyss of in-browser ads that may be difficult to block even with an add-on. From the screenshots it seems that FF analyzes your behavior (connection to an unprotected network) and displays the ad based on that. I fear what's going to happen when Chrome team picks this idea (e.g. "we see that you are logging into a bank X, how about you try bank Y?")

I don't see anything saying that they won't. They might only offer ProtonVPN for all of time, but I could also see them adding additional providers down the line. In any case, I'm imagining that the vetting process is relatively costly to perform and keep up, and I'd trust Mozilla more than myself to do it.
