Starting with Firefox 148, which rolls out on Feb. 24, you’ll find a new AI controls section within the desktop browser settings. It provides a single place to block current and future generative AI features in Firefox.
They actually listened to the community, thats very nice.
Nah, I think we just need a dialog box - could be like osx - “are you sure you want to allow the plugin that you said you wanted to use? It was built by: you, not signed by Mozilla.” Maybe put a “You have unsigned plugins running” tool tip - that gets displayed at startup or every 8 hours.
Again - imagine if you couldn’t install the programs you wanted on your computer - this is current firefox.
I suppose we are both beating the already-dead-horse on different ends now.
that won’t help to warn the largest part of the target audience, those who were trained by big tech to dismiss those dialogs by reflex without reading a word in it
I disagree, if the user has opened up about: has gone in an said, “I want to enable this local plugin permanently” and then says, “yes” to a “do you really want to do this” — this is enough — also just think if mac or windows or linux all of a sudden said, “no you can’t install the software you want” — you would be against I would think.
