      Did you read the article? Why would adding an option to use ai in a side bar require shuttering a company?

      “this week, we will launch an opt-in experiment”

      And

      “those who have opted-in will have the option to access their preferred AI service from the Firefox sidebar”

      At least this is opt-in, and Firefox still allows for manifest v3 extensions, and, on the whole, isn’t using a engine funded by a billion dollar company that’s doing everything in it’s power to spy on you.

        Yeah i was kinda overreacting but it really isnt looking good for firefoxes future at this point imo. As long as its open source there will at least be forks like librewolf.
