So what would you have them do? We all know they can't survive without Google's money. Things have gotten way worse since that statement (see sibling comment).

So what would you have them do? We all know they can't survive without Google's money. Things have gotten way worse since that statement (see sibling comment). They have two choices - work with industry players to find the least privacy-intrusive ways for them to keep doing what they do or give up, accept Google Chrome as the one and only browser and let Google develop constant user tracking as a native browser feature that can't be disabled. Mozzila does dumb shit all the time and they need to be called out for it. But they are still around, despite their competitor's revenue being over 300x theirs and their market share dropping to below 5%. They still regularly and often successfully oppose Google's attempts at steering web standards to their benefit, despite Google being their main source of funding. Their browser still has the best privacy features out of the box and supports the widest variety of privacy-enhancing extensions. Like it or not, they are our only hope. A "privacy-first" company means a dead company. Mozilla and every other project (Signal, Telegram, Brave...) is "Survival first, privacy second" and that's still better than the alternative - "profit first, privacy not even a consideration".
