What's really funny about Firefox's new AI chatbot feature is you're probably *only* going to find out about it if it's by someone outraged about it on social media¹, because Mozilla snuck it in like a thief in the night.

¹ Sorry about that, by the way.

@mcc Firefox is intolerable.

Mozilla leadership has no idea what their product is or who their users are, and all their offerings will continue to rot until they replace them with people who both know and care about those things.

The only viable option is to run a fork that excises the increasingly large number of misfeatures they keep shoving in.

@ieure So far no forks I'm aware of actually remove the features, though. They just set-by-default the about:config options to disable them :(
@mcc @ieure For the ad features it might make more sense to do active spoofing until they give up on the ads in the browser idea again (they have before and attention spans in the ad business are limited) There is an opportunity to give their early adopter advertisers an unrewarding experience by stuffing the "attribution reporting" system with embarrassing domain names
