'oh, don't worry; you can turn it off!'
That's what they all say. Fucking rapists.
Fuck you, it's not going on my system. It's sure as hell NEVER being installed in something like a web browser that has access to my password vault when it's unlocked.
I might(unlikely) have considered it, if it was op-in. But just the fact that it's opt-out means I've got to make a point of turning it off, AND regularly verifying it's stayed off because it will "accidentally" turn on again.
....
MAYBE don't trivialize rape by comparing a software you don't like to... rape.
Perhaps Mozilla doesn't quite fit into this category, as their software is far more optional to the average user than say, Microsoft Edge or Copilot being forcibly installed on every Windows PC; but more and more companies are forcing features on users that don't want them, after being told over and over again:
NO, WE DON'T WANT THIS SHIT
Refusing to take 'no' for an answer, and instead doing whatever you want to people IS a rapists mentally and I will not apologize for pointing it out.
Then don't fucking compare it to rape
