From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ok it's getting properly sus now. Mozilla goes into politics way too much
Every major company does this, it just doesn't make headlines. Plus I'm sure they know you can still install it outside of the store.
So you're defending major companies? Ok. May as well do what Jia Tan did...
You know as well as I do that Mozilla isn't exactly a small community project. This isn't a surprise to me.
It isn't much of a surprise to me either. I heard of them jumping into politics and misusing donations in the past. But it doesn't mean they're good
