A Yahoo!/AOL will be a bit of a homecoming for Mozilla. :)


We have the mozilla dragon down the hall at aol headquarters --- it's a Pokemon Go Gym, even.


The San Francisco Mozilla Office is its own Pokemon Go Gym also. It's down the street from the Niantic HQ too.


It's in one of the official screenshots on the app's Google Play page, too.

As a Mozilla intern I've always thought that was funny.


Wait, I'm a young'un. How?


The Mozilla Organization has a partnership with Yahoo! to make them Firefox's default search engine [1]. Firefox was created by the Mozilla Organization which was created by Netscape. Netscape was acquired by AOL in 1999 [2].
