I try to be even more clearly, (sorry for my english ;)

1.
* Local MoCo made their custom build ( other than normal locale build) for
business reason, and only provide download to this custom build on local
website.
* This means, people in China cannot choose to download non-custom zh-CN
Firefox on our China site.

We have to choice between
* "We do provide choice for user, to select between local custom version
and global version" or
* "We only provide local MoCo custom build on local MoCo site"
on this issue.

2.
* We redirect the fastdial shortcut to a online store, which user added,
through a affiliate company, and we earned money form that.
* Although user will not notice they'd been redirected.
* (For ex., It's same behavior as that some website will redirect user's
link to Amazon through SiteTag's affiliates link.)

The policy choice of this issue is that
* "We don't redirect user's saved link in anyway, in order to earn money" or
* "We do redirect user's saved link through some 3rd party website's
service to make money".
