  Because Mozilla really doesn’t care about what people think anymore. They’re an incredibly bureaucratic group dealing with a lot of red tape placed as a force for good that doesn’t always meet the mark. It’s mainly the reason Firefox doesn’t have a lot of things (that it honestly should have)

  Also, Firefox is a completely original browser but it doesn’t have a “chromium” version the browser like Google Chrome does. Both of the Firefox commercial product and the source code compile to the same thing.

    I know, it was a rhetorical question given the stance they take on a lot of things always aligning with what Google wants.

  Its own browser using the Gecko rendering engine.

    It was a tongue in cheek, rhetorical question, regarding what I said before it.
