No one is freaking out. It’s use case might be valuable to some, that’s undeniable.
The problem is that it’s current implementation is abhorrent, unjustifiable for what it achieves and forced onto users that don’t even want it in the first place.
I know myself that a huge portion of users don’t want anything to do with AI. That they disagree with it for a number of very valid reasons. It’s not unreasonable to assume that different browser companies know this as well.
So why the fuck does not a single one of these shitlord browser companies AT LEAST release a version of their browser without any AI bundled in (regardless of it being on or off by default, like, be for real), let alone oppose it. We’re essentially begging at this point for someone to just…do nothing.
Doesn’t sound too difficult to me. But what do I know, I’m just a user of a browser.
Also, I said a ‘huge portion’ because I was generalising.
90%
90% of users want nothing to do with it.
And yet, here it is, whether they like it or not
