Forks of Firefox (like the Tor browser) are still Firefox, no matter how neutered it is.
That's my point. So then what's the solution when there are essentially two mainstream/mainline browsers? How far do you believe one needs to take it? Is a fork that de-Mozilla's/de-Google's the browser enough (and changes the name)? Or is that "still bad"?
Because eventually you'll run out of [usable/daily-drivable] browsers, if you consider any fork to be "evil" by virtue of coming from Chromium/etc.
