This is unacceptable. Mozilla has shown they are incapable of not abusing Firefox. There shouldn't be an advertising channel/system in the browser.

If you want to advertise, have a newsletter that people can opt into.

If you need money, allow people to pay for just Firefox.

I think many people overestimate how many people would pay for Firefox.

I guess the question is if you can get any significant number of users to pay more than Mozilla would make off of ads for the same users. If you can make $1/mo off of most users and $5/mo off a smaller set of users, the smaller set doesn't have to be that big to make it worth doing financially.
