Which data are stored in "User Data" and how to clear this kind of stored data? When deleting data in the privacy settings in Firefox, the "User Data" storage is still unchanged. Also "Cache" is not cleared completely.

The "User Data" raises up to 1GB. It is only possible to clear it by completely wiping all data via "Clear Storage" but then everything is wiped, also all Firefox settings etc. "Clear Cache" obviously only wipes the Cache.

I use Firefox for privacy, lack of bloat, and other ethical reasons. For these reasons, I don't want to have the new CEO keep the incorrect idea in his head that the people who use Firefox want AI. Please don't add more AI, if anything--- please remove the AI which has already been added to Firefox which users have to remove themselves. I will dump Firefox if the new CEO continues with this plan.

In order to access a software product I had paid for (specifically Komplete Standard 15 from Native Instruments) I was instructed by Native Instruments to open an account with Plugin Alliance. Whilst doing this I was invited to create a mask email. I thought this must be a message from Plugin Alliance. Having attempted to create this mask email, I can't get any further with my Plugin Alliance account. I would like to dispense with the mask email because it is more trouble than it's worth. How do I do this?

Heard this new guy thinks AI slop is the way to go: I dropped google and chrome because of this YEARS ago, even before the obscene direction 2025 has brought. AI has been nothing but a violation against my privacy and consent, theiving not just personal information but artistic merit and PROGRAMMING ITSELF??? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU???

monitoring bloatware is infesting my tech. I've spent hours fighting against it for my elderly mother because she doesn't know better. I'm installing Mint because Windows 11 is USELESS.

I will drop Mozilla faster than an unwashed boyfriend. I came here specifically to say this. DO NOT. GO TO AI UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE

I beg of you, please do not go forward with the AI focused policies. AI as it currently stands is a rapidly sinking ship that a LOT of consumers hate, and that group is coincidentally the group that most frequently uses Firefox. By pushing forward AI-first policies, you are alienating your userbase, destroying the privacy and usability that makes Firefox special, and you're upsetting millions of people that love this service. Please, for the love of god, DON'T GO FORWARD WITH AI. Stick to what makes Firefox special, and it will flourish as every other browser becomes more and more unusable.

So I've recently seen some stuff on my social media about Mozilla's new CEO talking about pushing AI into Firefox. And WTF?!

Is this some sort of stupid corporate bullshit or just a delayed April Fool's joke?!

There is literally NO CONCEIVABLE REASON for introducing AI into ANY browser, let alone Firefox. I started using Firefox over 15 years ago for the personalisaton features and readily available add ons and to date it's still the best browser I've used.

To my knowledge, a lot of people have recently switched to Firefox in order to avoid the unnecessary/unwanted spyware and bloatware that comes baked into most other browsers and this seems like a massive middle finger to them. The only reason I can see to introduce AI is either because you want to lose users, or are so desperate for cash you're willing to fuck over everything and everyone to get it.

Firefox is already a product that works and is probably the best alternative to any of the other major browsers out there. It's a product that I've been happy to use for many, many years. So why is it being ruined by this needless push to add in "AI"? I don't want it. I don't want any part of it to touch my experience using this browser. I want either an easy way to completely turn it off so it can't suck up my data and expose my private information, or not have it be included at all. I will actively be looking for alternative browsers if these plans continue.

I use firefox as my browser of choice because it seems to be the only large browser not yet completely flooded with AI slop and bloatware. I'm incredibly disappointed that the new direction seems to be "becoming a modern AI browser". I don't care if I can opt-in or opt-out of AI tools for my personal browser experience - simply their presence presents a safety, efficiency, ethical and privacy concern.

The ONE THING that puts firefox above other browsers and why it is gaining more users recently is because it hasn't jumped into the AI-toilet along with Chrome etc. Yet. If Firefox moves forward with the implementation of more AI tools, regardless of individual opt-in options, I will have no choice but to stop using firefox. I am simply not interested in wading through excrement.

I am very disappointed to learn that Firefox is moving forward with AI integration. I use this browser specifically because there is no AI. AI tools are a drain on public resources such as clean water and electricity, and the data centers that host the AI servers are a burden in many ways on the communities where they're built.

Additionally, I am concerned that the AI will turn all of our browser history into an AI slop ad factory where our data is more easily collected and sent off to generate more ads.

If AI is integrated into FireFox, I will no longer use this browser, even if the AI can be "turned off".

Is there any way to keep AI out of FireFox?

I am incredibly concerned and disappointed over the announcement of the intention to turn Firefox into an AI browser. I use Firefox primarily for privacy concerns, and the already existing AI "features" that it has are pushing my boundaries already. The addition of more AI into this browser will slow it down, deplete natural resources, and ultimately push me away from it. I've been using Firefox happily for over 15 years now, don't ruin the good thing we have here.

AI is trash that doesn't do what it's being touted as capable of doing, and I'm sick of having it shoved in my face. Don't flush decades of good will down the toilet for no reason.

I've used Firefox for a long time because it's been one of the few browsers that doesn't force features that harm its users onto the userbase. It's been leagues beyond the majority for that long time! The introduction of AI features over time has been a bell ringing for the loss of that thoughtful approach to aiding the users. AI in browsers has been used by malicious third parties to steal the data of anyone who visits specific sites, it's prone to misinformation when used to summarize anything, and simply doesn't add any value to the browsing experience. It gets in the way and slows it down, even! If more AI features are added, I will be finding a different browser to use.

Anthony Enzor-DeMeo wants to push way more AI onto Firefox. I originally became a Firefox user for the customizability, privacy, and security it offered in comparison to other browsers. How does Mozilla Firefox intend to maintain these features with so much AI slop? Will there continue to be versions of Firefox available without the AI components? I'm sick of having to turn off new data-stealing AI settings all the time on a browser I once trusted. I hate that I am now looking for other options.

This isn't so much a question as a complaint, I guess. Get your shit together, Firefox!!!

I, among many of my peers, have spent the last few years struggling to get rid of unwanted AI in our lives and computers, scraping out information and invading our privacy like a virus. So many Firefox users chose Firefox BECAUSE it had no forced AI. We chose Firefox BECAUSE it doesn't steal our data or invade our privacy.

We have trusted Mozilla for years and heralded it as the only good browser left. We're begging you to not do this. The AI bubble will pop. Everyone is mad about this. Do not do this. Please.

why does everything have to have AI these days? it’s so stupid! like sorry I want to think and do computer tasks for myself without some water-guzzling, privacy-breaching bot getting in my way. I’m super disappointed that Firefox has chosen to go the way of AI after all the promises it’s made over the years about not being evil like certain other browsers. I’ve willingly put up with various downsides of Firefox (moodle not always loading, difficulties sending gifs in emails, etc) for years now because I believed in Firefox’s commitment to privacy and ethics. clearly that was all for nothing. thanks a lot for ruining the only browser that wasn’t complete slop!
