Mozilla ends its deal with Yahoo and makes Google the default in Firefox Browser
|Just when we thought we’ve seen it all. Mozilla, rolled out a new update for their browser to make faster, lighter to give users better experience while surfing. This new browser now has Google as the default search
“We exercised our contractual right to terminate our agreement with Yahoo! based on a number of factors including doing what’s best for our brand, our effort to provide quality web search, and the broader content experience for our users. We believe there are opportunities to work with Oath and Verizon outside of search,” Mozilla Chief Business and Legal Officer Denelle Dixon said in a statement.
“As part of our focus on user experience and performance in Firefox Quantum, Google will also become our new default search provider in the United States, Canada, Hong Kong and Taiwan. With over 60 search providers pre-installed as defaults or secondary options across more than 90 language versions, Firefox has more choice in search providers than any other browser.”
Firefox Quantum is here. Firefox's new web browser is the most interesting thing to happen in the browsing space in a long time. To continue using search bars for Firefox Quantum, One should download Search Bar Firefox 57 Quantum addon.
