I would prefer Mozilla to ask. Some options:

  • on first install, pick your poison - donate, accept ads, or accept negative karma
  • pay to remove ads on a page - you'd pay into a bucket, and payments to remove ads would subtract from that
  • more optional, revenue-generating services (e.g. push their VPN harder)
