Does Firefox make money even if I don't use Google as my default search engine?

Maddison@sh.itjust.works to Firefox@lemmy.ml – 76 points –

How does it work anyway? I mean, how does Firefox make money? Are they paid per google search or something like that?

And, do they make money if I use forks of firefox and use Google on them?

And, what are the total number of active users for Mozilla and do the forks account into this count?

It was Bill hedging his bets. The antitrust case against MS was huge and scared them shitless. They had seen what had happened to Bell Telephone.

Yes, it allowed Apple to survive and become what it is today.

But, MS was not broken up.
