> Mozilla is focused on deploying its roughly $1.4 billion worth of reserves to support “mission driven” organizations, according to a new report.

$1.4 billion would be a very good start for an endowment which one day could maybe fund, a browser?

The article described this misleadingly. Mozilla in 2026 intend $~650M in expenditure. 80% on core products like Firefox and Thunderbird. 20% on expanding into AI.[1] Their 2024 total expenses were $588M.[2]
