Nobody asked for or wants that. Just let people donate directly to Firefox development, instead of towards a bloated foundation funding millions in exec salaries and project nobody wants.

  That is the situation already. Evidently they're not attracting enough donations to not consider advertisements. https://donate.mozilla.org/ https://donate.mozilla.org/

    > That is the situation already. No it isn’t. Please stop spreading misinformation. You can donate to the Mozilla foundation, which wastes copious amounts of money. It is NOT possible to donate towards Firefox development directly.
