We just need to make sure the browser suppliers are in total opposition to the surveillance capitalism and personalised advertising industry.

So while Chrome is such a dominant browser? No. It’s not gonna happen. Google will keep writing “inadvertent errors” that exempt their own tracking cookies from user instructions to delete them.

Google owning the dominant browser and mobile OS is a travesty for privacy. What we really need is a consortium of companies to rally behind FireFox for mutual benefit, like how Linux is done
Most of Firefox funding comes from Google
Yes, but having companies/entities other than google funding them would reduce the "say" google has in the browser design and implementation.
