They might eventually try to pressure Firefox as well, as google is actually the largest funding contributor to Firefox. I wonder what the Open Source license dictates with the GECKO engine that firefox maintains? Could somebody make a fork and profit off of it or would we be forced to a different browser framework entirely?

It wouldn't be the first time they screwed over extension developers (see XUL extensions being discontinued)
