Mozilla Raking in Millions?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the i'm-a-twentyonaire dept.

truthsearch writes "Internetnews.com wonders about the money Firefox is making in revenue thanks to Google. From the article: 'Mozilla gets paid a publicly undisclosed amount for each Google search query made from Firefox by a user.' This revenue is used to pay the recently formed Mozilla Corporation's 40 full-time equivalent employees and fund project and infrastructure development."

    Funny. I installed the Wikipedia search engine into Firefox a while ago. I've since upgraded (thanks to the fact that Firefox is full of more holes than IE) it to the latest version.

    Surprise, surprise, my Wikipedia search engine vanished.

    Yeah, they're only two clicks away, as long as you NEVER upgrade your browser to solve the latest Gaping Firefox Security Flaw (tm).
