I've heard that it wouldn't it be possible due to tax laws, but I do wish that you could donate directly to Mozilla Corporation itself. The foundation's advocacy work is important, but it would also be important to ensure Firefox's continued development without them having to rely on Google

You could just buy one of their products (Pocket, VPN, etc.) and not use it if you want.
