    It’s entirely optional folks. No need to get all bitchy. FF is our only option against google, we need to stop criticise all they do. We asked for an AI opt-out option and they listened. Mozilla is far from perfect but we need them to keep developing, no forks are possible without FF.

      Sometimes the only real options are “bad” and “less bad”. An uncomfortable echo of something else we’re all familiar with, perhaps.

      This does not mean that we should not criticise the less bad option, only that we should not switch to the the bad option.

        They aren’t even in the same realm of bad though. Mozilla made a few tiny ai features. Google has spent hundreds of billions on it.
