#Firefox rewrote the "Edit and Resend" feature in 2022 and it has been broken since then. If I want to see the response I need to use the feature, export as Curl and run it in a terminal. If the output is a large single-line JSON, I need to export it to a file, open it in an editor and reformat.
So my top request for #Mozilla is: please add more #AI to everything ASAP.
LOL "here, we've enhanced our browser with all these features you didn't ask for, all AI!
Also, here's our GREAT NEW FEATURE, a way to turn off all those new features!"
(which is great, but, really....)
From October 2025:
" #Mozilla Foundation made a simple request to #YouTube, #Meta, #TikTok, #LinkedIn, and #X share the top 1,000 most-viewed public posts per EU country.
These are public posts that have already been seen, in some cases, by millions. It’s not rocket science — just a list of viral posts.
But so far, every single platform has refused."

You may have heard that #mozilla introduced an #AI kill switch into #Firefox.
If you would rather use a browser that is less interested in #LLM technologies, @Waterfox has been your companion for over a decade.
I had a chance to ask the founder and developer some questions about Waterfox's history, operations, and their take on AI.
Enjoy and and share!
Mozilla is adding a toggle to disable all generative "AI" features in Firefox. It shows that organized pushback is actually making a difference.
One battle won. Now let's make it crystal clear. We want tools, not forced LLMs. Keep the pressure on until "AI" is no longer an option.

I downloaded and fired up Firefox Nightly (2026-02-03) to test the #AI "kill switch" to see how it works.
So far, so good. It does appear that the "kill switch" disables the settings that people are turning off in about.config. See 5 screenshots below.
Also, Mozilla has published a support article detailing how to disable the #AI features:

Mozilla rudert zurück (haben sie tatsächlich auf die community gehört diesmal?) und baut einen "AI kill switch" in Firefox (ab Version 148) ein.
Endlich, aber zu spät und es wäre besser gewesen, sie hätten das von Anfang an so gehabt.

Mozilla benevolently gives us an ability to block the thing that nobody asked for.
Firefox will soon offer a way to block all of its generative AI features
