AI features seem to be opt-out instead of opt-in.
Mozilla gave assurances that AI features would be opt-in. The most recent update automatically turned AI features ON and I had to open settings to block them. This is opt-out, not opt-in. I find this betrayal of my trust as a longtime user disturbing.

It's opt-in. Default setting is "Available", it literally means opt-in. It doesn't work in this state.
Available: You’ll see the feature and can use it Enabled: You’ve opted in to use the feature Blocked: You won’t see and can’t use the feature. For on-device AI, any models already downloaded are removed
