Google 's monopoly over web search was bound to raise concerns with the various antitrust watchdogs around the world, and reports revealing that Google paid $26 Billion to be the default search engine on several platforms in 2021 didn't help.

Mozilla receives royalties from Google through their foundation for keeping the giant's search engine as the default option on all new Firefox installations, be it mobile or desktop.

Mozilla , the ones behind Firefox , which is the most popular alternative to Google Chrome , might lose a massive chunk of their revenue.
