God, can someone please finally take #Firefox out of the hands of #Mozilla and their damn "AI" bros?

When they started adding all of this nonsense I went into my about:config to explicitly set "browser.ml.enable" to "false", but apparently even doesn't save you, as the new "features" will just not give a damn. 🫠

I personally am not happy about it. On the other hand I see that ordinary users, I've installed Firefox for, appreciate it. "Hey, I can have ChatGPT in the side panel instead of going to chatgpt.com!"
I'd rather have this for them in Firefox than losing them to browsers which gave up user's privacy to AI services completely.
As long as there is clear borderline between what AI gets access to and what it doesn't and it's possible to turn it off I'm content with it.
