I don't work for the Firefox team, but it sounds like you are trying to suggest an alternative method to donations from which you wish to earn a commission.

There are three basic types of ways of making money. If you have genuinely found a brand new 4th one, I suggest you find a way to monetise it yourself and then make generous donations to Mozilla :)

  1. Donations
  2. Charging (in various forms)
  3. Selling advertising.

Mozilla have deliberately chosen not to monetise using methods 2 and 3.

Some of the methods of monetising using types 2 and 3 are very subtle and may not be easily recognisable. If your wonderful new method is not donations then it is probably one of the other two but you haven't realised it.

Possibly. No! Mozilla doesn't pay for "ideas" or pay a "commission" for same. There is none. No. That is contrary to the Mozilla Foundation "mission".
