[GTALUG] Google is ruled a monopoly so Firefox is at serious risk

[Karen Lewellen]

  Speaking personally that depends on how this is being done.
If, as I asked, Firefox is apart of a nonprofit organization, then google 
should  not be  donating, then getting this money back in tax benefits. 
The requirement to pull back on their antitrust payments might expose this 
other illegal benefit for the company.
That again assumes Mozilla is a 501,c,3, equal in the u. s.  to a charity.
