Mozilla in 2013

I would really love to see Mozilla team up (and/or buy) DuckDuckGo. Not only for a better search experience, but it would just be great to see Mozilla sever its ties with Google - a company who seems blatantly at odds with the very principals of trust, privacy, and transparency that Mozilla is boasting here.

According to Wikipedia[1] over 80-90% (or $163 million in 2011) of Mozilla's funding comes from Google. I'd love to see Mozilla be more independent from Google, but I don't think they're going anywhere without them anytime soon.

I think that would put them in an extremely uncomfortable place financially.
