Weather widget???

Why on God's green Earth is there a widget by default that has access to my location? I understand that it's just for weather but it is seriously unacceptable that a browser that claims to care so much about privacy plasters my location on my screen for all to see when I open a new tab. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea and how can I turn it off?

Trying to understand your concern. How do you know OTHERS can see your location?

My reaction was the same as gamerelite's. I really dislike when software organizations make changes to my settings without asking. I deliberately sever any connections that I didn't ask for ... thanks a lot Mozilla. Thank you for the info link to turn it off!
