Firefox is made by Mozilla Corp., which is for profit. Brave is fully FOSS as well. And Mozilla as a whole is a useless, unless we're talking about their ability to take Google's money (money which comes from Google ad businnes, in the end), raising the CEO paycheck and firing devs and making FF shittier with each forced update.

I just checked. Mozilla has both a non-profit and a for profit division.

Both support Firefox.

FF is developed by the for profit Corp.
