Sponsored Top Sites (or “sponsored tiles”) is an experimental feature currently being tested by a small percentage of Firefox users in limited markets.
Well, I wouldn’t rely on someone working their ass off and taking on tons of responsibility out of the goodness of their heart.
Having such a job means you need to rely on your family to support you. And I know no one who’s so passionate about free software that they will gladly be a burden to their family for no extra money.
Besides, I do not think that Mozilla’s CEO should just by default get less than other CEOs and be cool with that. I think, they deserve a pay that’s comparable to others in a similar position.
I agree. I wouldn’t know what to do with 3 million.
But I know that if I told my family that I was offered a job for 3 million, to do the same thing that I’m doing now for say 200k, and I declined, they would tell me I’m ridiculous and probably seize to support me, because I could’ve bought them anything they want and instead selfishly only cared about my own interests.
Maybe that illustration is ridiculous, too, but all I’m trying to say is that it’s easy being an idealist when you’re not in that situation yourself.
My family would disown me if I did not donate most of that 3 million salary.
So I think we have very different morals in our families. A lot of human civilization’s problems would be solved if humanity did not horde wealth and resources for personal gain.

No one is saying that the CEO shouldnt get any money at all. But 3 million per year is clearly ridiculous.
