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.
about:config has all of these set for me. I don't see anything AI related, but I also use sidebery for tabs/sidebar
browser.ml.chat.enabled falsebrowser.ml.chat.shortcuts falsebrowser.ml.chat.shortcuts.custom falsebrowser.ml.chat.sidebar falsebrowser.ml.enable falseextensions.ml.enabled falseextensions.ui.mlmodel.hidden trueThe ml stands for machine learning, I think.
Lol yeah, I meant I don't have the AI junk in firefox's ui using those settings. Even that chat selection 'chrome' page is essentially blank other than a model selector. I don't know if it usually has anything else, but it's as local/internal as about:config and the like.
