> Not many people complain about this btw. It's a foolish argument. If Yahoo or DDG is the default, most people will just switch back to Google.
That was in reply to a comment which was deleted by the commenter.

>No. it's opt out.
Oh never noticed that. But I think that's because its just annoyance for the people who don't care about privacy. And those who does can just opt out.

Whatever it maybe I trust Mozilla more than Google. I am not being a fanboy too. Mozilla is not some giant tech company selling your data to advertisers.
It makes me sad to see people targeting Mozilla for everything.
Like yeah its default browser is Google because that's the way they can pay developers to work on it. For now they are only viable alternative in browser space.
Yeah it collects data(only after asking for appropriate permission) which too is anonymous(i might be wrong here). But they are not collecting it to make profit out of it like google. Its only to make firefox better.
And people suggesting to use forks of firefox keep in mind if there is no firefox there are no forks. I am not qualified to comment on Mozilla's way of handling their funds. But it is what it is for now.
But atleast if you use firefox daily show some love!
