I'm curious, what problems do they have?

Funding.

That's assuming they want to make money.

It seems to me their mandate is to make everyone's lives better. This looks like a project to define web standards for the future. It also looks like they've got enough to last them for a bit.

>>I'd much rather have Mozilla working on an "OS for the web" than Google, despite whatever problems Mozilla may have.

In this context, one of the problems that Mozilla has compared to Google is money.

They've got 100 million. That's enough to do amazing things.

Honestly, for all the money Google has, Google+ isn't very impressive.

Interestingly, about half of that 100 million comes from Google to secure their spot as the homepage and default search.

$100 million is nothing. People regularly win that much on the lottery. It's enough to do amazing things, but not enough to competitively do amazing things.
