What a great use of funds! I'm sure that this will make Firefox a better browser, somehow!

Mozilla has seemingly become entity completely unmoored from reality, spending money on random needless things. I suspect the same would happen to any hypothetical Chrome nonprofit, if Google were forced to sell it off.

Who is this blog post written for? What does Mozilla get out this?

Developers will see this as a waste.

People I know outside of tech don't know what Mozilla is.

A rebrand? Cool… I guess.
yet another top-down initiative from a top heavy fake-non-profit.

didn't catch any blimp of this on the community/open channels.
