Actually Mozilla ditched Google as their search revenue partner and now is partnered with select search engines depending on the market. Yahoo for the US, Yandex for Russia and Baidu for China, for example. Mozilla to my knowledge no longer relies on Google for any revenue.
See how do we generate revenue question:

- gtk40 10y agoYes, this is what I was referring to when I said "they no longer receive revenue from Google." He seemed to be basing the entire claim of the two companies being in bed together on Mozilla's use of Google's safe browsing data. I was asking if there was anything else now that the monetary agreement has ceased.
- KaneEdger 10y agoThe opposite was the case. Mozilla was ditched by Google. It is logically that they say it the other way around, as it does sound much better, and gives the illusion that Mozilla is in control about their fate. They got ditched after Google enforced minimalism (Australis) on Firefox with giving Mozilla "good design advice's" that of course backfired. And as soon as Mozilla's share dropped enough, Google gave them the boot.
