Firefox is a free, open-source web browser developed by the Mozilla Foundation and Mozilla Corporation in 2004. It is compatible with various computer and mobile platforms and uses the Google search page as its homepage. Firefox's privacy and open-source principles distinguish it from Apple's Safari and Google Chrome, which do not sell user data. It introduced features like a bookmark toolbar, tabbed browsing, pop-up blockers, and add-ons.
