Up to now, with all LLM things that Mozilla has done, you can just turn them off. I just shrug and turn them off
How is it in this case?
Can you turn this feature off, if so where?
You do realize that because Google literally funds Mozilla, they will keep doing these bad things, opting in users without permission
Maybe you should not use anything that the Mozilla makes anymore, otherwise you will just be annoyed and disappointed Time after Time. The Mozilla team is literally choked by Google, financially choked.
Wishing for their destruction is deeply emotional
These annoyances disappointments & irritations are not good for your health, my internet friend.
IMHO you should leave all Mozilla products behind, then be in Peace again.
Sending you

Oh, you can, and I did. I was just extremely aggravated that they somehow turned it back on. I'm guessing it gets turned back on every time there's an update, but I'll test that carefully the next time.
> You do realize that because Google literally funds Mozilla, they will keep doing these bad things, opting in users without permission
Honestly, Mozilla doing bad things is ironically borne out of a desire to get out from under Google's thumb. They recognized that they're ~85+% funded by not only their direct competitor, but one of the top three villains of the internet age, and they want to find alternate streams of funding.
Unfortunately, the way they are seeking those alternate streams of funding is the most broken, brain-dead silicon valley ways, by alienating their users.

I'm leaning more and more towards that decision, but Gecko-based browsers are currently the only viable option that I feel comfortable with. It's interesting to note that I don't have any gripes with #Thunderbird, which is managed by a different entity beneath the Mozilla umbrella, and they seem actually... SANE.

Indeed. It was a spicy take. I would rather with that they return to the values that founded them, but I'm not holding my breath.

Yeah. So many things to be angry about these days. Definitely not good for me.
