- A Chrome extension called “Microsoft to Microslop” that renames Microsoft references in browsers as a protest against the company’s aggressive AI integration.
- The extension reflects widespread user frustration with Microsoft’s Copilot AI, which faces extremely low adoption rates and growing privacy concerns among Windows users.
- Many users actively seek ways to remove AI features from Windows, highlighting significant backlash against Microsoft’s AI strategy despite CEO dismissals of complaints.
Again, propaganda against Firefox with no basis.
What is your claim? That because it uses AI, it inherently bad?
The AI functions implemented by Firefox are generally run locally. They are NOT sent to some central server, and they are NOT stored, and they are NOT used for biometrics.
You show NOTHING, and yet you act like you made a point???
You are as much part of the problem as Microsoft and Google.
lmao. You fail to beat the fanboy allegations with this comment. At this point you literally look like the guy from the meme in my eyes.
and again with the misuse of the word “propaganda”, this time topped off with the most basic demagogic manipulation i’ve seen in a while, comparing me to corpos, trying to… What exactly? Is the last paragraph there to make me feel bad? Because it provides no logical counter-argument to what i said. Sorry, but i’m too autistic to be ragebaited.
You’re the one, making claims without supporting them with any proof.
My claim is that firefox gets worse by adding the features nobody asked for, spending time and money for their development, purely out of FOMO of the AI hypetrain, while struggling to implement actually relevant modern technologies such as WebGPU. AI can be a useful instrument, but if i ever want to use it, i’d use specialized tools for that, and look for them at specialized places.
Most of those new features are absolutely amazing, like the instant translation of almost any page,
Creating tags for images that don’t have them for blind people, is an amazing feature for blind people.
If you don’t like them you don’t have to use them. You don’t get to dictate that others shouldn’t have them on false accusations.
Some of us like a feature-full high quality browser, that respect our privacy.
OK and which functions are that?
You’re just riding the AI hate train and think that’s the default correct position. And sometimes it is, but not in this case.
And guess again, because Mozilla is actually using AI for things that are both useful and noninvasive.
So why don’t you piss off and go use a terminal browser instead if that’s what you want.
Alternatively there are a lot of decent open source browsers you can use, that don’t have the advanced features of Firefox.
