Not sure if anyone realizes this, but Mozilla is not really an open source thing. It&#x27;s a company that happens to be a nonprofit. It deploys resources and runs itself like a Silicon Valley company.<p>It&#x27;s not just a bunch of dudes in their basements writing code. They have like $330 million in annual revenue. They are sitting on like $90 million in cash.<p>Mozilla isn&#x27;t about software for its own sake or just for the sake of the web. They are about self preservation and Persona wasn&#x27;t going to keep them alive, so they killed it.<p>Mozilla is a company. That is what companies do.
