There are Firefox forks like LibreWolf if you need to be a crybaby about Mozilla being a company that needs to pay their developers with the most user friendly way possible…
Also their AI is more of a play thing for some of their developers, they need to go with the flow at least a bit. Its also opt in where i am, idk if thats the case everywhere, but if not its opt out.
Furthermore, from your own article:
Mozilla has patched a critical security vulnerability in its Firefox Web browser that’s being actively exploited in the wild
Oh noooo they patched it.
Keep being a crybaby and use Opera, for all i care you can even install yourself red star OS.
What?
