isn't there some sort of anti-monopoly law to stop this?
and did they simply sell out for money or was it taken over in some sort of hostile move?

Microsoft Firefox 2007 can deliver online pornography at blazing fiery speeds. By using a proprietary dynamic algorithm, anything that remotely resembles a tit or a boob will download up to 10 times faster!
