And? There are 3 engines in the market Blink, a improved fork of WebKit and the KHTML engine by KDE, Gecko developed by Mozilla, improved engine of the Netscape Navigator and WebKit, still used by Apple. Blink’s naming was influenced by a combination of two major factors: the connotations of speed, and a reference to the non-standard presentational blink HTML element, which was introduced by Netscape Navigator and supported by Presto- and Gecko-based browsers until August 2013. All are 100% FOSS.

Blink is used by the Chromium project by Google, used also by the Chrome Browser, Chromium as is, naturally is full of Google (tracking) APIs, but because it’s FOSS, all companies of Chromium browsers can strip them out without problems, there isn’t any control by Google. Do you think that in EDGE, also Chromium, there is something left from Google? Less in Vivaldi.

Google influence is bigger in Mozilla, because its the biggest sponsor of it and has even Google Devs working on Firefox (eg.the Firefox Save Search API is from Google and also some others) It’s not so easy, it’s not the Browser where Google have influence, it has it on webpages which use it’s API and in its huge amount of services. The browser you use for it is irrelevant. In the browser is only important that it works for your needs and respects your privacy, no other thing.
