These settings are utter bullshit and a major dark pattern

@gordonmessmer @campuscodi what the user community asked for was off by default with granular enablement of features, ideally by moving them to installable extensions.
@kevingranade @campuscodi I don't think turning translation off by default would be good UX. As far as I can tell, users can turn off "AI" features as a whole, and then selectively enable the ones they want, like translation.
Am I missing something? What is the problem here?

Basically, if you don't agree to have AI present and watching over you, Firefox disables all these features... including the ability to translate pages....
Nice going, you Mozilla idiots!
@campuscodi did it have a built in translator before?

@campuscodi “to unblock specific features, use settings below” literally in this screenshot, or am I missing something 🤔
