Yeah, and makes a fortune from it. So much for the "no money for servers" argument. Also: Mozilla is pretty much dependent on Google, because that's where most of it's revenue comes from. The same with Opera; whilst some revenue comes from selling their mobile versions, the largest revenue comes from Yahoo! and Google. Basically any pre-set search bar in Firefox or Opera is paid for.
