I don't know if I can go on much longer if Mozilla keeps trying to shove AI crap down my throat.

Simple, you don't opt into it. Problem solved. You're welcome.

I know that. Nobody is forcing me to use it.

But now I'll have a browser with a large, useless, disabled binary blob attached. Do I want this in my system?

Jump to Waterfox or Librewolf. It's really easy, just copy the profile folder and go. No more mozilla telemetry or mozilla account or pocket or acceptable friendly advertising or ai or whatever the fuck else

I'll have a look at those, thanks.

How large is the blob? How space constrained are you? Tell me the numbers.

If you played around with local small LLMs you know that it still needs a few hundred megs at least.

I don't really care about the space, I just don't want it in my systems.
