for the love of god lead with that next time

I will instead CHOOSE to use a browser that doesn't support the water-sucking electricity-draining tech-waste-dumping HIPAA-violating scam machine built on theft at all.

The fact you’re burying this in the comments versus explaining it in its own post says a lot. Though, to be sure, the best thing you could do is just abandon the AI integration entirely…

And when will it be available in more countries?

It's a bundled feature that cannot be uninstalled... "Optional" is when something needs to be downloaded separately. Like ad blockers.

Fuck off. It was optional to get into AI and Firefox keeps choosing wrong - again and again. Ask any regular person who has ever used Firefox if they give a rat's ass about its profit margin. Or maybe, do a search on your own browser to see the kids ChatGTP has killed... STOP FEEDING PEOPLE CANCER!

The fact you are supporting anti-environmental, anti-copyright, antu-freedom garbage AT ALL is the problem. Giving people the choice to do something bad is a bad thing, period. Firefox. PLEASE reconsider and completely remove AI. Please.

Did you ask the people whose work was stolen to power it if they wanted to use it?

i would like the *choice* to use software that's entirely free of the fascist malware being shoved down our throats at every turn

i mean I dont think it would've changed the outcome much but you guys def should have led with this

Who cares? The thing is, you're using donations towards funding AI. No one wants it. It just makes your browser slow and steals data. I want to know WHY you did this.

that's nice but i can't seem to find the option that stops Mozilla from wasting funds on this crap.

If I have to disable it then its already in the code and already posing a security and privacy threat. No thanks

Or I could use LibreWolf.

I turned all the AI shit off in the desktop Chrome web browser... and somehow it's still turned on in a bunch of places like in the location/search/omnibox and in the developer tools/inspector/javascript console, despite these dozens of "features" being set to 'Disabled' in chrome://flags/

My continued use of Firefox is also fully optional, please keep this in mind you vermin.
