Facebook's $60,000 donation is interesting. The article says that the average file size reduction was 5%. Given that Facebook has built datacenters capable of storing exabytes of photo data in "cold storage", I wonder how much money Mozilla just saved Facebook in storage space costs in relation to how much they donated.
