The Mozilla Foundation does such important work to ensure standards across the Internet, and keeping the monopolies on their toes. This is another shining example of just that.

Quantifying monopolistic behavior from major tech companies is important. This needs to be documented before changes can happen.

Its an os for (very) cheap phones (under 50 bucks) that is based on the work of firefoxOS, but also maybe use a search engine next time

Don't forget to donate a few dollars a year at least to the Mozilla Foundation.
