Oct 24, 2018 at 6:05 comment added Brandin @devjelopanje That question is already answered here: What are the benefits of having an open sourced software?
Oct 23, 2018 at 21:49 comment added devjelop anje @Brandin i mean the source code property and i think i am confused with the proprietary software, in another way how Firefox for example proves that it is the source code owner. in the other case, you said it is possible to take the code from Firefox and create another browser with its code? But like that it is possible to create hundreds of navigator with the code which will cause negative financial cases for Firefox since it is invested on its code.

Oct 23, 2018 at 8:40 comment added MadHatter @Brandin I recommend reading the author's other questions. (S)he seems to have some grave misunderstandings about (a) copyright and (b) free software development.
Oct 23, 2018 at 5:04 comment added Brandin What do you mean by "cleanliness of [Firefox's] source code" or "creation of a new browser"? Both creating a derivative work with 'unclean' code and creating new browsers based on Mozilla's source code are allowed by the license.
