Judge in US v. Google trial didn’t know if Firefox is a browser or search engine::Google accused DOJ of aiming to force people to use “inferior” search products.

I think its also important to note, he was not explicitly unclear about what Firefox was, he was unclear about what Mozilla was. It's admittedly still not great, but I think it's a little more understandable a thing to be unfamiliar with than the browser itself. I'd really rather the title referred to Mozilla because of this, as really there's little to definitively back up its claim that the judge is unfamiliar with Firefox, just that he is to some degree unfamiliar with the company that makes it. Again, still far from ideal, but not nearly as egregious as they're trying to make it sound.
