Ideas:

  • donations - these need to actually go toward Firefox development, they don't, so I don't donate
  • paid services (e.g. their white-labeled VPN, they could also white-label Tuta or Proton services)
  • and add-on that pays sites to not see ads (my preference)
  • funding of privacy-oriented startups - they have something like this, so do more of it
