Oh I imagine the papers are being filed as we speak, because this is blatantly illegal.

Well you typically need standing in order to file a lawsuit, who would do it? Mozilla are probably the only ones. Why would this cause them to do it when past similar practices haven’t?

Microsoft, Mozilla org, maybe apple

EFF or government

On what standing though? Mozilla potentially has standing, and if the government finds that google is a monopoly, then the government could have standing, but nobody else.
