[Disclaimer, I work at Cliqz] I cannot answer for the "true" motivation of the investors, but their pitch and actions so far are well align with the fight against monopolies narrative. Do they want to get return on investment (eventually)? I would assume so, and I believe it would be fair. I do not see them as mutually exclusive. Of course, this is my personal opinion.
