It's 75% of their income. Definitely obscene CEO salary but it's still true that Mozilla would die without this deal.

You said it right. Mozilla would die, not Firefox.

No, Firefox would die too. Or at least it would become completely irrelevant.

The open source community doesn't have enough manpower to maintain a browser engine.
