Firefox noooo

@rixx feature request: shake your phone to instantly shed all AI features from all apps.
(Remember to shake weekly because they creep back up like a swarm of flees from hell.)

@DJRNDM @rixx I think they host these services themselves so they probably see themselves as trustworthy. Also opt out also preserves your rights. You just have to do it proactively. But you have the right to opt out and they respect it.

I am not defending Mozilla. IMHO the should put their efforts somewhere else. But AI is a an open strategy for them and opt out is their compromise. I can live with that though I'd prefer it to be different.

@rixx Bad fox! *squirts spray bottle*

@rixx@chaos.social yes the ai summarizing itself is bad but who the hell decided shaking was the best possible interaction to trigger it lol

The internet - where everything is turned into a sex thing sooner or later. Now you can wank your Firefox to spill AI summary all over the place...

@chris @rixx Funny, read folks reporting LLM crap was still functional in Firefox after throwing the "AI Kill Switch".

@jrdepriest @rixx it will be something different and more dystopian next time.

"Shake to Present Papers"
"Shake to swear loyalty"
"Shake it or Die"

@rixx
How is it enabled if mozilla claims that "Enabling Shake to summarize is optional"?

@rixx *** shaking the Mozilla Foundation really hard and not in a sexual way ***

@rixx one of my children's phones has: Shake to turn on the phone Flashlight

[covercash@mastodon.social]

@rixx @briankrebs am I doing it right?

[rixx@chaos.social]

@jrdepriest @MeaningfulBits yesss, that was the only time in my life that I used the feature and it was so good!

[davebebrave@mastodon.social]

@rixx I've always thought "shake to _____" doesn't make much sense. There are too many false positives and pressing a button is quicker.

@jrdepriest @MeaningfulBits @rixx It's super nice and all phones would have it but for the Motorola patent. 🤬

And AFAIK free "ROMs" like LineageOS are too chicken to just ignore the patent and offer it on all devices. Or even as an add-on app FFS.

[feistel@sns.feistel.party]

@rixx AI and motion controls, two things everyone loves!

[rixx@chaos.social]

@DaveBeBrave yeah, the only good use I ever saw was triggering the flashlight on Moto phones. That was rad

[reay@beige.party]

@rixx @jalefkowit Waterfox FTW…

[timdebruijn@social.vivaldi.net]

@rixx no AI? Use @Vivaldi , it's AI free.
