Firefox has only a few percents of market share - how is it a protection?

The swindled their 90% share down to <9%, but Google can point to Firefox and try and claim they aren’t a monopoly.

The monopoly protection is provided by Apple and to a lesser extent Microsoft. Mozilla is completely irrelevant at this point.
