“AI must be clear and understandable. Controls must be simple. AI should always be a choice — something people can easily turn off.”
And then in the same article he goes to write that Firefox "will evolve into a modern AI browser", which makes AI sound like an intrinsic trait. Doesn't exactly inspire confidence if you ask me.
You could turn Pocket off, you just had to do it every time you updated because they decided to be user-hostile and keep jamming it down users throats (I'm still baffled as to why).
I'm not hopeful.
That wasn't my experience with Pocket. It stayed off for me on Firefox for Linux.
