I was wondering this too. By working directly with tech companies and (one assumes) subsidizing tokens, they're empowering the people on the inside who absolutely want to have the bugs fixed.

Who outside of Mozilla is going to pay and spend the effort to find Firefox bugs? Sure some hobbyists and contributors might, but they don't have the institutional knowledge of the codebase which can help guide an agent prompts, nor do they have strong incentives to try and report them, nor do they necessarily have the time to craft good bug reports that stand out from the slop reports.

My assumption would be that most people working to discover bugs this way in Firefox are interested in using them rather than getting them fixed, so maintainers wouldn't necessarily even know the degree to which it was already happening.
