Isn't the main source of revenue for Mozilla Google? So what is the difference in their incentives from a revenue pov?
- rpastuszak 4y agoNot everything’s black and white. How much control does Google have over the feature set of FF[1] or Safari[2]? ^1 ca $400M paid to Mozilla for search partnerships by Google, per annum ^2 probably ca 10-15B paid to Apple, pa How would you answer your own question?
- fikama 4y agoI am not sure I understand. Mozilla is more dependent on those 400M than apple on 10-15B so (hypothetically) they are more willing to please Google or at least not to disturb them much, than Apple. So, purely from revenue pov Firefox is nearly as much concerned about google's bussiness as google is.
