And whats the partnership about?

I'm guessing that Qwant will now appear as a default search engine

Google is the default search engine because they pay a lot to mozilla, I doubt that would change

That's why I said a default engine; Firefox comes prepackaged with a few default search engines, Google being the one selected OOTB

I think “default” on this context would refer to the search engine that is selected OOTB; Google is the default; the others are merely included. There can be only one default.

Well, semantics. Then I'd have to correct myself and suppose that Qwant would be included.
