The original article mentions the sabotaging only as historical evidence for a trend of pushing its tech onto people. It is not saying Microsoft is currently doing it specifically to sabotage anyone. Bullshit title.
The original article also mentions several things as fact that are not, and omits other facts, but that’s a different discussion.
Mozilla are perfectly capable of sabotaging themselves, thank you.
Was the image generated with copilot?
ai;dr
Here’s the original article from Mozilla instead of this third-party AI slop regurgitating it.
Ah yes, I’m sure it was microslop who decided to make firefox add an AI the community voted against
Holy shit that image… we need to destroy AI I’m sick of this absolute garbage polluting the web
Almost as bad as people.
The image isn’t even used in the article, 100% it’s a ragebait tactic for clicks.
Yes, I agree. Join us over on fuck_AI
Why would I join a fuck AI sub that every day I login is just gonna be like fuck it I fuck AI that just sounds like a complete mental drain no thank you.
because fuck “AI”.
This is indeed a disturbing universe.
Image? The entire site feels ai guided.
Fuck off with this AI bullshit
I just came to watch the people angry about the cover image.
To be fair, they edited in the Microslop logo and also the Firefox icon, making a crying fox look like a narcissist hugging it’s own image, that is not completely out of blue with their recent shitty decisions
Microsoft hasn’t done anything wrong. Windows is a proprietary software and they can do whatever they want
antitrust legislation exists and applies to proprietary software
“You’re on my property, I’m allowed to shoot you here.”
While these “ethics” do exist, they’re extremely niche. So don’t pretend yours aren’t.
Alternatives exist.
If you use Windows, you agreed to the TOS.
Don’t use it if you don’t like it.
Personally, I don’t.
But not everyone is able to (for lack of awareness to alternatives, technical skills, software constraints, work requirements, vendor lock-in, …). Are those people unworthy of being protected from an evil company’s wrongdoing just because they’re using the “wrong” OS?
You’re basically arguing that corporations can do whatever they please “on their own turf”. That’s not true as far as user rights, consumer protection and anti-trust laws are concerned. And it shouldn’t be.
Windows forcing their own propriatary software as a means to destroy competing web browsers? Is it 1997 already?
I don’t think Microslop really needs to sabotage Firefox. Firefox is doing a really good job of shooting their own selves in the foot.
Nah, mozilla sabotaged firefox.
Por qué no los dos.
Mozilla could have had a foothold but they literally added AI into Firefox, so idk how far they’re gonna get.
It defaults to local models only from what I know. You probably are responding from a device that uses embedded models already. If you are against technology how are you responding?
FR. These features are so easy to disable, when I updated Firefox recently it asked me on next load if I want the features or not… I chose not, no big deal!
‘AI’ is this generations Justin Bieber / Skrillex. There’s plenty to criticise but it’s becoming a bandwagon at this point.
