    Doesn't Firefox still have brand recognition though? I'd have thought even people who answer "google" to "what browser do you use" would have heard of firefox, and therefore looked it up rather than using the neurons to ask, "what alternative browsers are there?"

    You're assuming people know things about the tech field. Very few do. I mean, those of us that do recognize the name Firefox. But someone who heard from a friend that Google went on trial for bad monopoly practices and wants to deGooglefy has no idea what's available or what any of it means.
