The key difference is you don't have to accept the MPL before using the
software. In fact, you don't even have to know it's there! Plus, you can
always use Firefox according to the GPL or LGPL if you prefer.

EULAs belong to proprietory software, and have no place in the FLOSS
world. Besides, all the Firefox names and imagery are protected by
trademark and copyright law. There's no logical justification for
forcing an EULA down our throats.
