This is to be separated: #1: Google is implemented as Mozilla's #1 Search Engine in the list. #2: Google uses the Mozilla Browser's prefetching feature ad #1: If that makes Mozilla a bad browser for you, you're free to fork your own source tree and have whatever-you-like as #1 search engine. ad #2: Certainly this imposes a privacy leak.
