Is Firefox now a complete tool of Google ?
about:preferences#search there is no way to delete google as search engine
I have startpage and duckduckgo as alternative options listed and I can remove them, but google cannot be removed as the REMOVE button is not highlighted in case of Google.
Why do you hardcode Google as the default browser for the URL bar ?
From the attached image you can see that the "Remove Tab" is inactive specifically for google.
I tried absolutely all advice on the net, and nothing works.
Firefox now seemingly FORCES us to use google.
This behavior was not present in the previous firefox version I used. It immediately happened after update to 128.0.3 (64-bit).
Is google now hardcoded into firefox ?
If so it is time for a hard fork in the firefox code.
Hopefully it is not needed.
In addition Google was ruled to be a Monopoly today by a federal judge,

So it would be better for Mozilla/Firefox to not continue the monopoly and become an enabling party in monopoly lawsuits.
