    Mozilla Corporation – which makes Firefox – is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mozilla Foundation. The foundation is a nonprofit.

    A nonprofit can’t generate a lot of business income unrelated to its mission. Firefox used to generate a lot of income, so it had to be spun off into a taxable entity called Mozilla Corporation.

    The corporation doesn’t have investors in the usual sense.

      Christ that’s a messy inheritance model. Hopefully Firefox will be spun off to, and will have to focus solely on the browser.
