Super frustrating the AI Chatbots are infecting my Firefox browser now. It looks like malware and pretty much acts like it since it cannot be disabled from the sidebar outside of closing this window. I like vertical tabs, but they require so many other options by default. Even more frustrating that the URL goes to a chrome browser link: chrome://browser/content/genai/chat.html

Alarms very heightened.

    It’s also in the context menu, and I think they highlight it with tooltips on a new install.

    Seems like they’re pretty good about honoring the opt-out, though. I haven’t seen anything about it since I said no to it, except when I was installing it last month on a new machine.
