What about the Mozilla Foundation? Or are they also included in this hypothetical?

Most of their revenue comes from Google. In this hypothetical example where the largest tech companies are no longer involved in Web browsers, where would Mozilla's funding come from?
Funding would still come from Google to buy there way into the default search engines list. Just because Google loses Chrome in this hypothetical doesn't mean they don't care about search and ads anymore.
When you're providing the majority of someone's revenue you kind of have some say in how they do things though ..
