This is both a settings issue, and a privacy and security issue. I want to disable the google lens context menu item to protect my security and privacy from constant AI monitoring. I've almost accidentally clicked the new option before and I don't want to send photos or images to google's AI unless I specifically intend to do so.
I feel like Mozilla is interfering with people's privacy more and more, taking away features from their users, adding features we don't want, butting in and telling us how our browsers should work. This is starting to become absurd. Now you've added AI into the browser that can control how your tabs are displayed and named even, a setting I found while trying to disable Google Lens.
There's a couple other settings I need to figure out how to disable too, such as the context menu of translate and the ChatGPT context menu items. I just removed ChatGPT and a new AI chat bot option appeared. Just wow. What the hell Mozilla. Is your intention to just turn your browser into one big spyware?
Give me the option to disable all of this stuff you keep adding. I have a policy thats supposed to disable your auto updates too but YOU disabled that as well allowing you to install all this malware/spyware into my machine without my authorization.

I admit, I don't read about updates so I don't know when Firefox did all these "enhancements"...but I'd love to know how to turn my mouse wheel BACK into a "scroll through the page" only function. I hate it auto opening links, I hate it scrolling through tabs. I suspect it of doing other "helpful" functions...and I can't even find the right words to do a search for this. The only applicable setting I found is "autoscroll"...which is turned off in my preferences...and which the browser STILL does.
All I want is for my wheel to scroll through the page...under my control. No auto-stuff. There's no setting for this in my mouse controls, as far as I've been able to determine, and it didn't used to do this. It must be in a Firefox update. Is this even possible any longer? Or am I, after decades with Firefox, going to have to change browsers? At this point, I've had far too many important operations disrupted and even fouled by this "helpful" change.
Pleeeease help?

I despise ai in every use and way with a passion. Now, it gets spammed everywhere on this browser, with no apparent way to disable and/or remove that filth. I don't want to see it, ever! Why is it even on by default??? I don't want "chatbots", "Ai assistants" or any of that shit at all.

With Firefox 144, there is unasked for/unwanted AI introduced. How do I ensure that all AI is completely disabled in my browser? I found a link describing some settings, but want to confirm this will disable ALL AI in the browser. I don't want it, don't trust the privacy/security holes yet to be found and would prefer it was not included in Firefox to begin with. The list I've found is:
Will this do it? What about:
browser.ml.chat.nimbus
Do I need to clear that field to ensure I don't get some auto opt-in in the future as more and more of this "stuff" is put into the browser?
Why not leave Firefox as a security/privacy conscious browser and put out a separate AI browser (FirefoxML?) for those that are not as concerned. How does Mozilla ensure that no information is leaked through AI from sessions for professionals that must protect physician/patient, attorney/client information or other legally confidential information?

Currently trying to find a solution to my firefox browser not responding to the errors in my text. Spell checkign seems to be unavailable on all pages.
I am on the latest Version 144.0.2 (64-bit), have box checked "Check Your Spelling" and have the langauge selected to UK GB English.
Also tried about:config in address bar. Then checked layout.spellcheckDefault and the results are default 2, true and true. I adjusted this number from 1 as directed on a previous help ticket.
Can anyone assist me?

I do not want AI summary windows popping up, or previewing links, or any AI features in the browser. All AI should be opt in not opt out, yet here I am forced to dig through a config file instead of having an easily accessible setting.
And Mozilla management probably wonder why people dislike them. Hint: this sort of garbage.
I have tried disabling AI settings in about:config such as
However I have continued to see an AI summary window, seemingly at random, sometimes with a long click and sometimes when mousing over text.
I want to be clear to whoever has implemented this; this is invasive, wasteful and frustrating.
I want a single option under settings to disable all AI features. Forcing this on users is a terrible idea and an excellent way to lose market share.

Trying to use the PWA features. Firefox 144.0 and windows 11.
Clicking the "Add to task bar" button, which makes the PWA window, but if I close the windows it removes the PWA app.
If I manually pin the PWA app to the taskbar, it just becomes a generic firefox bookmark. It seems i'm also not getting a windows pop up related to this when looking at video guides.

I just wrote and it w as scrubbed, that I have FIRED Chrome Fired Edge, and fired every web p;latform that replaced a 90% functional text matching system with a 2% functional AI system with the cognitive abilities of a slower than average goldfish. So I need the ability to turn off every new feature you offer or I will and I AM POSITIVE MANY AMERICANS AND MUCH OF HUMANITY WILL CANCEL THE TECHNOLOGY COMPLETELY. We don't need it it falls into Entertainment and it is not the only choice. There are still books campfires fishing making models collecting minerals sports humanitarian ojectives honesty and Truth available in real life. Stop shoving us backwards why are you shoving a pathetically incapable technology in our faces? is it so you can offer a convenient implant that will SOLVE EVERYTHING????
