Wow, that's awesome! I was very sad without the clickbait articles. I was staring at Firefox thinking "i wish it had a cluttered start page with clickbait articles and sponsored content like MS Edge" - and then with this new update the devs nailed it! Thanks!

That's really perfect!

From where do you think they get money to pay salaries other expenses?

Mostly google, actually.

And its a scary thing.

no matter how many down votes I get, I still insist that firefox should be self dependant as long as it doesnt come at cost of violating my privacy

Advertising in my private space on my private hardware in my private software in my private time is an invasion of my privacy. Anyone forcing ads into my domicile is invading my privacy. It's MY space, not yours.
