Does it still have a relationship with Google?
- teod 12y agoI'm not sure if it still has relationships with Google, but it did form a partnership with Yahoo recently [https://blog.mozilla.org/press/2014/11/yahoo-and-mozilla-form-strategic-partnership/ https://blog.mozilla.org/press/2014/11/yahoo-and-mozilla-for...].
- digi_owl 12y agoThey diversified. I Think they provide Yahoo search by default most places, Yandex in Russia, and some other one in China.
- soapdog 12y agoYahoo! is the default for U.S.A. Yandex for Russia, Baidu for China. All the others default to Google. And yes, you can always change the default search engine to your preferred one in the preferences.
- imglorp 12y agoFor a while, the Thunderbird default search engine was pegged to Bing. There was no easy way to change it. A marketer came to the bugzilla to explain they would not fix it for business reasons.
- tinalumfoil 12y agoWhich seems backwards because before Chrome, Google would pay Mozilla pretty large amounts of money [0] just to have their search as an easily-changeable default. [0] http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2398046,00.asp http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2398046,00.asp
