Another different to our search engine agreement is that, when you search 
Google/Yahoo through Firefox’s search box, it’s Google/Yahoo who paid Mozilla 
for this behavior.  But in this case, it’s 3-rd party affiliate company paid to 
Mozilla, for we redirect user through their service.

(imaging if Bing company paid Mozilla for redirect every user’s Google/Yahoo 
search through their service. The user maybe will not noticed because redirect 
happened quickly, but Bing will know when and what user is looking.)

Is it look like we're encourage 3-rd party ad companies to paid us for let them 
tracking our user?
