Right, then the question is, what's Qwant's business model. Where do they get the money from to send to Mozilla? I'm just always so suspicious that the users are the ones getting burned

what’s Qwant’s business model.

They sell search queries and meta data (IP address,user agent, etc.) to Microsoft for advertising purposes.
