PSA (?): just got this popup in Firefox when i was on an amazon product page. looked into it a bit because it seemed weird and it turns out if you click the big “yes, try it” button, you agree to mandatory binding arbitration with Fakespot and you waive your right to bring a class action lawsuit against them. this is awesome thank you so much mozilla very cool

So, Mozilla adds an AI review features for products you view using Firefox. Other than being very useless, it’s T&C are as anti-consumer as it possibly can be. It’s like mozilla saying directly “we don’t care about your privacy”.
I got this linked on Mastodon: https://kitsunes.club/notes/9wbyqywt28
Nice. Thank you. For those who don’t click the link, it appears you can disable by setting these flags:
browser.shopping.experience2023.active
and:
browser.shopping.experience2023.survey.enabled
To false.
EDIT: On finally getting back to my desktop and disabling these, it looks like there’s a bunch of these
browser.shopping.experience2023
flags. Some of them set to true, others false, I just set them all to false.
