Google pays Mozilla a huge amount to remain default search engine in Firefox

 

Firefox is a completely free browser, safe and full of features, but its little luck is among the competition to the point that the new Microsoft Edge browser has outperformed it! But this does not mean that the browser already has millions of users, and when the word "millions" is pronounced, Google's interest appears!

Google has renewed its cooperation with Mozilla regarding the default search engine in the Firefox browser on all platforms. This is as Google pays Mozilla - the owner of Firefox - just as it pays Apple to make its search engine the default search engine, and Google was not satisfied with renewing the contract for one year, but until 2023 .

The contract value is unknown, but analyzes indicate an amount ranging between $ 400 and $ 450 million per year! Perhaps one of the strangest information about the matter is that Mozilla - not for profit - depends almost completely on this agreement, which constitutes most of its income.

It is reported that Mozilla launched the largest update in its history for the Firefox browser on Android, which you can try now, and it is also reported that Firefox offers other products such as Lockwise for managing passwords and Firefox Send for file sharing.
