How about you stop paying millions to executives and just work on the browser instead?
Mozilla has ~$1,5 billion in total assets, and while not all of that is liquid, they can easily sustain decades of actual development.
Mozilla is the one digging their own hole at this point. They don't want Firefox to be a community driven open-source project. They want it to be their project making them rich. That's not how a browser should be developed for it to have our best interests at heart, and it shows with how much crap they've injected into Firefox lately.
I think it is bold of you to think they have some sort of plan. Mozilla smells of bad management and unless the board is stepping down I don't see that changing. It is entirely possible to make lots of money from privacy tools. What they are doing is a cheap Google knock off.
