1. I believe you can turn the ads off. Firefox needs revenue, like any other organization with employees to feed.
2. I believe you can change your search provider. Yahoo search was made the default because Yahoo pays Mozilla a lot of money for it. Mozilla needs money, see #1. If we can diversify the search market while supporting free software, that's fine by me.
- Osmose 12y agoAlso important to note that sponsored tiles disappear once you have enough history for the new tab page to fill with your favorite sites. I mean it's still ads (And I don't like them personally) but it's ads in a space that would otherwise be useless to users.
- scrollaway 12y ago> but it's ads in a space that would otherwise be useless to users. Um, I don't have a problem with the new tab ads at all but this is a false justification. All those banner/block ads you see on the webs can be justified that way too.
