Currently, Google pays Firefox’s bill by having them set their default search engine to Google.
This will no longer be when Chrome is in the hands of another party. DOJ is currently advocating for this forced sellout.
So will Firefox be no more after that?
Part of the DOJ ask is that the Google search business should be enjoined from paying for preferential default status on other platforms.
They want to prohibit the Firefox arrangement as part of the anti trust matter.
Which is justified in all fairness, firefox is too dependent on monopoly for support to be competitive going forward
