Never sold, just given away, see the cliqz debacle.

Before the apologists roll in: Cliqz GmbH is a media and advertising company, and Firefox DOES NOT own Cliqz GmbH, they just own a bit of it (officially they are a "minority investor").

The Mozilla Corporation sent private data of its users without their permission to a third party ad company. It's despicable and unforgivable.
