Mozilla Foundation fronts Mozilla Corporation which is for-profit and brings in nearly a Billion in revenue.

Don't donate, do harden it.

Firefox is good privacy wise, but does not have sensible default. Also there have been times when mozilla have made not so promising statements.

For true privacy enthusiasts see See LibreWolf

Agree, I recently checked further after seeing "sponsored" icons in my new tab page. Had to turn that off. I understand why it's on by default, it's just not congruent with privacy.

Love Librewolf, its default privacy settings are the best I have seen.
