Marius Quabeck ☛ Firefox’s AI Switch Is Off. Telemetry Isn’t.
My Wireshark test of Firefox 148 showed that its AI kill switch disables generative features, but leaves telemetry and advertising untouched. Six months later, Mozilla’s CEO has called the switch perhaps the most important AI feature of all. I retested it in Firefox 155.

Mozilla ☛ AI on your terms: Firefox meets you where you are [Ed: Mozilla shovelling up slop, no matter if you want it or not]
People feel differently about AI, and here at Firefox, we think that is completely reasonable. Something else that is completely reasonable: deciding for yourself how and when you engage with AI features.For some of you, AI is part of your everyday life, whether you are using it to summarize a large amount of information, brainstorm ideas for work, or research trips and personal purchases. Some of you interact with AI as little as possible, and prefer to keep it that way. And a lot of you are somewhere in between: curious, but exploring on your own terms and at your own pace.Your personal use of AI is just that, personal. Firefox offers various levels of AI integration into your browser, and the choice between them is entirely yours.
