Who are Mozilla's customers? Google are to a close approximation the only ones who pay them??

Customers = users. Mozilla offers paid features in Pocket and Firefox Private Network, and are looking to offer more premium tiers of services. Specifically, the customers who use or pay for FPN have additional privacy protections that CloudFlare doesn't offer to its own customers, despite FPN running on their network.

The optimist would say s/customer/donor but I'm not an optimist.
