Instead of capitalising on Google pissing off power users with its crusade against adblockers, why the hell is Mozilla fucking up so hard here? Seriously, which chain of command green lit all of this and didn't even think this would be remotely an issue?

It has been less than a week since the new interim CEO took over the reigns from long-time Mozilla CEO Mitchell Baker. Today news broke that Mozilla is changing its product strategy going forward. The organization plans to focus on bringing "trustworthy AI into Firefox" and to scale back some of its other products and services.

She used to work for McKinsey according to her Wikipedia which explains a lot if you ask me.

Yeah I don't like ai stuff. And I certainly don't need AI to group my tabs. I can do that myself just fine.

Firefox does run better when you disable all "ml.chat" settings.
