Is it possible to simply start a class action law suite against firefox for tampering with our computers with unwanted updates against our will?

My question says it all without me having to go into details. I just think it should be against the law for a company to force its will on those who use their products, as firefox has been doing, for the longest, with their browser by automatically updating one's personal computer, though that individual, specifically requested, that updates are not desired, as given the option, by firefox, to choose that preference.

I believe it could be considered a breach of a verbal contract between the user and the provider of a service. If programs can be forced, at will, onto an individual's computer by one company, then why not allow every company to force what ever programs they desire onto everyone's personal computer with no choice to refuse? Imagine how that would look, if every company was given the same privilege as is afforded to firefox.

I just think firefox is committing a cyber crime that needs to be brought to the attention of regulators, especially when a forced program causes other desired programs to malfunction. This is morally, as well as, socially wrong, to deny individuals the use of what they rely on, because one company want to play the cyber bully by forcing it's will on others, and ignoring any plea for mercy. The firefox bully has gotten too big for it's own good, and need to be put in check.

You are asking legal advice here?

Best to consult with a lawyer for an answer to that!
