    OK, but then they rely on donations or info selling for ads. Is that really better? I sure won’t foot the bill for the ceo’s multi million salary.

      Bing is still a thing. Bing offered Apple a boatload of money to be the default search engine in Safari. I’m sure Mozilla could make a deal with Microsoft.

      I also wonder if they could just prompt the user to select a search engine from a randomized list, and then get paid from whichever service the user picks?

      Some browsers sell placement spaces on the default start page to make money as well. It would be another revenue stream for Mozilla and it’s easily updatable by the user directory don’t want any of these default sites.

        At this point they are at best useless, at worst a scam. They’re even defending Google against DOJ. Fucking clowns.
