   Can someone tell me if I'm in the wrong reality?

   Mitchell Baker, the #Mozilla CEO, just one of their upper management, is making a salary of $7MM/year. And Mozilla is asking for donations? Is this not the CEO of Mozilla asking people to give money, essentially, directly to her and her management team? I don't understand how a company can be begging for money to pay their CEO an outlandish salary.

   I used to donate to help keep Firefox alive, before they began killing their reputation. But I have no motivation to donate money to help Millionaires get richer. Why do they think anyone else will?

   Am I just reading this whole thing the wrong way?
