Firefox has been eating in Google's hand since its inception. Willfully ruined all chances of becoming the one browser defending privacy and people's rights against Google... (for instance by banning early on third party scripts by default, ad-blocking by default, blocking tracking and other cookies by default with much smoother controls)

And still maintaining that image of the nice guys (with all the millions gotten from GGL and so much volunteers they chose not to pay, that's probably easy to buy such good PR anyways...)

Firefox ripped us off!
