60. Other browsers, which are not preloaded on devices but can be downloaded, also use an integrated search bar. Id. at 1963:3-12 (Weinberg) (DDG); M. Baker Dep. Tr. at 189:3-12 (Firefox). Google is the current default search engine on Firefox. From 2014 through 2017 it was Yahoo. See infra Section VI.A.2.a. On Firefox, a drop-down menu allows users to select a non-default search provider for the next search without changing the default search engine. M. Baker Dep. Tr. at 92:11-25. This is called the “this time, search with” feature. Id. Those options include SVPs, like Amazon. Id. (listing Bing, Amazon, or DDG as options).
61. Default settings can be changed by the user. On all major browsers, users can navigate to the browser’s settings and change the default to their preferred GSE. See, e.g., M. Baker Dep. Tr. at 61:1-4 (Firefox); Tr. at 2630:3–2631:15 (Cue) (discussing DXD6) (Safari); id. at 7650:10-17 (Pichai) (Chrome). No browser allows a user to change the default GSE to a specialized vertical provider, such as Amazon, or to a social media platform. Id. at 7426:21–7427:4 (Raghavan).
62. Notwithstanding the option to switch, the default remains the primary search access point. Roughly 50% of all general search queries in the United States flow through a search access point covered by one of the challenged contracts. See id. at 5755:6-11 (Whinston) (discussing UPXD104 at 34–36). Of that 50%, 28% of those queries are entered into search access points covered by the Google-Apple Internet Services Agreement, 19.4% through Google’s agreements with Android OEMs and carriers, and 2.3% through search access points on third-party browsers, such as Mozilla’s Firefox. See id.
63. Another 20% of all general search queries in the United States flow through user-downloaded Chrome, which defaults to Google. Id. at 5762:22–5763:13 (Whinston) (discussing UPXD104 at 37).
