It's said that the Mozilla Corporation is making millions from Google, for something that Firefox does.

If Debian end up maintaining a fork of Firefox (i.e. a fork that removes trademarks, and applies security-fixes to unsupported browser versions) why doesn't Debian apply for some of those millions from Google? If Google doesn't want to pay Debian, then the Debian fork could disable the 'thing that Firefox does that is worth millions to Google'.
