Let me get this straight, NOT A SINGLE DOLLAR of donations are used to fund development for Firefox!?

How many are under the false impression of "helping Firefox" when in reality their donations are used to fund advocacy campaigns [0] and managerial bloat [1]?

To the best of my knowledge that is correct, yes. The way that they've structured it they can't legally do otherwise.
Wait until you hear how many Wikipedia editors and servers are paid from the many millions of donations they aggressively beg for every year..
