I-Firefox Community Forum

I've been reading about how Firefox is starting to include Google Gemini (along with other AI models like Claude and ChatGPT) into the browser sidebar and experiment with AI features.

To be honest, this feels a bit odd to me. Mozilla has always positioned itself as the independent, privacy-first champion of the open web, while Google is a data-driven tech giant. Isn't integrating Gemini a bit of a contradiction or a conflict of interest for Firefox's privacy mission?

I know Google pays Mozilla to be the default search engine, but does this AI integration mean Firefox is giving up ground on its core privacy values, or is there a different strategy at play here regarding user choice and local/on-device AI?

Would love to get the community's thoughts on how Mozilla balances this partnership without compromising its mission. Thanks!

Mozilla should actively oppose mandatory ID-based age verification systems that erode privacy and instead prioritize developing and advocating for technologies that enable users to remain anonymous online.

With an older version, i was able to clear cookies after visiting secure sites(s) - now I can't find a way to do this. Please bring it back - I consider this to be extremely important for my security!

The five Firefox relay have not been used by me; can I create new ones. I don't use shopify or pinterest. It looks like they were set up in 2024. Can I receive 5 more to clean these out. Thanks.

Hi. Cannot seem to figure out how to remove 3 Mozilla Firefox notifications appearing vertically up the right side of my windows 11 LG gram laptop. They are covering up part of the mozilla dropdown window when I click on the 3 little lines in the upper right hand corner. Sorry, not very good at explaining this. I know I have to eliminate these spam notifications, just need step by step instructions... Please help me, Thanks [edited email from community support forum]

I receive many unwanted/junk/spam emails a day (10 to 20) in my email inbox. How do I stop this influx of junk? right now I am blocking domains, is this the best I can do?

Hi I just found VPN button in my browser turned it on and it works perfectly. i was very suprised because i am from russia and this vpn somehow can avoid DPI (deep packet inspection) that every isp has here in russia. suggestion - please add cryptocurrency as an additional payment method because we dont have visa or mastercard here since 2022. thank you

I'm trying to setup the new, free VPN that came with the 149.0 update, but the instructions tell me to click on the VPN setup prompt in the top-right corner of of the Firefox toolbar. I don't have this VPN setup prompt.
