If Google stopped sponsoring, Mozilla would go down and Google would get slammed with anti-monopoly lawsuits from the EU.

So Mozilla can do whatever they want and Google won’t stop sending them money. Since that is a lot more profitable in the long run.

So… What are they waiting for? Are they going to rely on gorhill for ever?

    Sure, as long as we still have options to disable their blocker and use a 3rd party one if we choose. It’s astounding how many users don’t bother to install an adblocker and it would be a massive improvement for those users who don’t know better.
    
    There’s been more than one occasion that I’ve used a family member’s PC and they have Firefox installed without a single extension, they didn’t even know that extensions existed.
