Can you please fix the license statement?

App License: Open Source (MPL/GPL/LGPL under Mozilla EULA)

While it was true originally, for the last 1.5 decades (since Firefox 13 in 2012) it has been strictly MPLv2.0.
There's a whole explanation about it in Wikipedia, with this source summarizing it:

The licencing on Firefox 13 has also changed. Now, rather than the old MPL 1.1 and disjunctive tri-licence, Firefox source and binaries are released under the Mozilla Public Licence 2.0.

The license's upgrade process was documented in Mozilla's wiki (starting with "We have a script which replaces existing tri-licence blocks with the MPL 2 boilerplate').

Please remember to likewise fix:

  1. Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release)
  2. Firefox Developer Edition
  3. Firefox Beta
  4. Firefox Nightly
  5. Legacy versions (they may be legacy but every single version there is still much newer than v13)

Thanks for the heads up

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
