The Mozilla Corporation is not registered as a non-profit entity, pays taxes, receives revenues, etc. The Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit organization, and its status is not under question. Google does not provide funds to Mozilla as “charity”; it’s a negotiated revenue deal, and they make more money off of the traffic generated than they pay to Mozilla. It’s easy to forget that, but this is not a charity issue; it’s an “affinity” revenue sharing deal.”
