I just updated (I use arch btw) and had to reboot WaterFox. The default search engine got changed to 1.org and StartPage no longer shows up as a default option even. Has this happened to anybody else?

The number of partners is in the cookie banner from onetrust when opening the site (maybe location dependent?). I'm aware it doesn't mean they necessarily are making 3rd party http requests (feels likely though?), but when a site has such a ridiculous amount of partners, it is a huge red flag.

But it's not surprising, if they donate to charity, for each search request, they have to generate income somehow...
