Google avoids losing money by having a large Chrome user base. It's the same as making money. They have to write checks to Firefox and Apple to maintain access to those users, but not with Chrome.
> Likewise Firefox. They _could_ implement tracking protection.
Curious what you want Firefox to do? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-prote...
- bruce511 4y agoI stand corrected, that looks like a jolly good start. Reading Firefox, Google gets money from chrome by a second order effect - from users using Google as their search engine. They also get money when you browse the web from adverts. The value of those adverts goes up the note they can track you. Google avoids losing money by keeping tracking in the browser high.
