why? bevause they gave people an option that dorsnt affect anyone else?
It always starts like this. I criticized the initial optional and ai features in Firefox. People said “oh its just this one time in the PDF” and so on. What happened? Mozilla added more and more Ai functionality, to a point where they had to integrate a kill switch because so many were bothered by. Also even if you disable all the features, it affects you in some way. Because now they will not integrate an alternative feature without the need of Ai. That means if you disable Ai, you miss out on features otherwise. And it takes lot of resources and development time from the team for stuff you don’t care.
Therefore I do not accept the defense of “it is optional, it does not affect you” for these various reasons I just outlined.
