> I will cut Mozilla some slack here because they probably have taken the supposed final text of the CCPA from Wikipedia

You don't think Mozilla ought to have a firm legal opinion on this that doesn't involve just going to Wikipedia and going "yeah that's good"?

The blog was written by product management, and most likely legal just generally told them that they got their justification from the CCPA's definition of sale, and the PR/marketing just searched for it and gave it to the blog post's author. Since Wikipedia is usually the first result in a search engine (and even has its own infobox), that's probably what they went with.
