Why isn’t the browser development organized as charitable work?

From the Corp’s Wikipedia page [0]:

> As a non-profit, the Mozilla Foundation is limited in terms of the types and amounts of revenue it can have.

Is this an oblique way of saying they couldn’t take Google bucks that way?

> Even though an organization is recognized as tax exempt, it still may be liable for tax on its unrelated business income.

So, they could still take Google's payment and they would still have to pay taxes on it?
