> At this point I will gladly take an announcement where CloudFlare buys them out and frees the Fox from annoying corporate interests

I don't see how cloudflare buying firefox would keep it from being a victim of corporate interests. That'd just make them subject to the corporate interests of cloudflare instead.

Unless they mean Cloudflare is actually a political entity, as it was created, but that doesn't make their claim any better.

They could basically re-form Firefox as a non-profit where they provide funding, but control the non-profit org enough to sway it from wasting funds, not to mention Mozilla's war chest is insane, its no wonder they have bought up some startups before.
