Since February, the Firefox team has been working around the clock using frontier AI models to find and fix latent security vulnerabilities in the browser.
We got the worst of both worlds. The Pocket functionality got Ship of Theseus’d: The original functionality is all gone, and what remained became a Mozilla-run ad/news network. They removed the Pocket label last.
“Complex but not arbitrarily complex”? I need more coffee this morning already because I’m burning through my patience for idiotic things at an accelerated rate.
This is an arbitrary sentence, not structured to communicate any information.
See how I had to have that final comma clause so you could understand what the fuck I was even saying?
So take out the free VPN and Pocket and it’ll be less complex! ¯\(ツ)/¯
They killed Pocket (they didn’t just remove it from FF) some time ago.

Yeah, let’s all use a fork that doesn’t patch those AI slop vulnerabilities.
… You do realize that security patches are upstreamed, correct? These forks just don’t include the ads, AI, or built-in VPN.
Didn’t some of those promise not to merge AI slop? I guess I misunderstood.
Depends on the fork. The MPL largely allows the forks to do as they please, so feel free to check their blog posts and patch notes for reference.
