C. Google’s Browser Contracts Are Exclusive
863. Google has default search agreements with Firefox and Opera, as well as other smaller browsers. Supra ¶¶ 310–318 (§ III.F.3).
\ 864. The exclusive defaults secured by Google’s RSAs with third-party browsers cover roughly 2.3% of all U.S. general search queries. Tr. 5763:14–22 (Whinston (Pls. Expert)) (discussing UPXD104 at 36).
\ 865. Google’s exclusive default position on browsers has excluded rivals from search shares they could get absent Google’s contracts. For example, Google has projected that a rival GSE would receive a significant share of the queries on third-party browsers if the rival won the default. Infra ¶¶ 914–926.
\ 866. Similar to its conversations with Apple, supra ¶¶ 762–778 (§ VI.A.2.e), DuckDuckGo has pitched private browsing mode integration with browsers but has been unsuccessful; these browsers’ contracts with Google were “the common theme.” Tr. 2048:9– 2050:1 (Weinberg (DuckDuckGo)) (listing Samsung’s S Browser, Mozilla’s Firefox browser, and Opera’s browser); UPX0787 (DuckDuckGo pitching private browsing mode to Mozilla).
