    Only reason Mozilla aren’t doing these things because they don’t have the market share and the money. Privacy protecting and freedom respecting stuff is all marketing. Firefox is basically Chromium without things that make Chromium good. The true alternative is WebKit, it has Apple behind it for crying out loud, it can fight Google way harder than Mozilla ever could. If you are a maniac like me you can also use Netsurf, gemini and gopher. Maybe even Dillo… ok maybe not Dillo (I hope that project gets somewhere someday).

        I’m sure all Google did was handing over data to state in exchange of some money. Mozilla would totally do the same if it means profit.

          The reality is much more nuanced, and no, Google is not just merely a state puppet. It acts like a corporation government with its own GDP and budget.
