"The majority of Mozilla's revenue is generated from search functionality included in our Firefox product through all major search partners including Google, Bing, Yahoo, Yandex, Amazon, Ebay and others."

Everything you just said was optimistic as fuck.

750 employees, 826 million dollars in revenue a year.

So what do they choose. Fire 700 employees and go down to 26 mill revenue?

Edit: when the hivemind disperses and sees Firefox follow Google in using tokens and blocking ad blockers, you may not see it as one of the dumbest thing you've read before.
