Why go after Firefox then and not Chrome? Do you also think they worry about competition from IBM cloud?

Because Firefox allows full ad blocking and Chrome doesn’t.

Chrome is sponsored by another surveillance advertising company, Firefox is not.

Chrome is market dominant and hard to hurt, Firefox is small and easy to hurt.
