    Back in 2005, they started paying Mozilla to promote the Google search engine via their browser. Chrome still wasn’t a thing back then. The weird thing is that they never stopped those payments even today, they even increased them on almost a yearly basis.

    That was back then… Why would they do it now that it no longer makes financial sense since Mozilla is just 3% of the browser market? No clue

      So there is competition. Firefox goes away there is no other browser and Google is a monopoly.
