Mozilla bought the company behind Pocket in 2017, so the extension is actually maintained by Mozilla.

Mozilla staff stated that Pocket would continue to operate as an independent subsidiary

That's not actually maintained by Mozilla. Its still operating on their own. I meant maintained directly by Mozilla stuff, as part of Firefox, not just the name of Mozilla slapped on it because they are the shareholders or like that. However, this is much better situation than I thought and thanks to this reference from you I am less worried now.
