A centralized VPN solution for all users is a terrible idea, and what is "secure cloud storage" going to offer that Dropbox doesn't?

I understand that developing a browser is expensive work and Mozilla need money to do it. I support them in this effort. But honestly no ones gonna buy this

I personally plan to, even though I run my own VPN & already pay for Dropbox. I definitely won't use the VPN, if the cloud storage looks decent I'll likely use it (since I already use encrypted volumes that I store in Dropbox, I only need to trust they won't delete/lose them).

I already donate to mozilla, I guess people have forgotten the web was during the days IE was dominant. I'm frankly shocked that so many web developers seem to be fine only supporting Chrome, at least those were the sentiments I was hearing when Edge went to chromium.

I'll probably buy it. I've been using Firefox for almost 15 years. Mozilla has never really let me down. I would much rather pay for an integrated vpn/cloud storage provider than maintain multiple accounts with multiple providers. Not to mention Mozilla's general focus on privacy protections that not all platforms share.
