Hello! Thank you for reaching out, The Mozilla VPN is developed by the Mozilla Corporation, a for-profit entity that is committed to the Mozilla mission and backed by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation. All of the products the Mozilla Corporation develops serve the purpose of protecting users’ privacy online. While we’re able to offer the Firefox Browsers as free products, developing and maintaining the Mozilla VPN requires different resources and we need to charge a modest fee to maintain the health of the product, which ultimately benefits its users and makes the internet a safer place. I hope you find this helpful,
