As I understand it using Google as the default search provider counts - Google pay Mozilla to have that as the default option, and your search queries are sent to Google from Firefox when you search, thus Mozilla are benefiting financially from your search query data. That’s been the case for years, it’s just that the privacy legislation has wider definitions now.
