    You should actually read the plans about their AI. It runs entirely locally, using your own data that never leaves your PC.

      Do you believe any part of my comment is untrue, and similarly, do you have any ethical issues with what I just said Mozilla Corp is doing?

        I’ve not heard about what you’re saying, so I’d like to learn more.

        Their AI system will collect zero data, though, and run entirely locally. And that’s what this is about.

        Like it or not, this is a hyped feature that people want. The cat’s out of the bag. It’s not a feature that I want, but it is one the market wants.

        It’s good to have a privacy-respecting option when we all know in a few years the likes of Google, Microsoft, and Apple will dominate the market. And we know that they won’t respect our privacy.

          Here’s a breakdown from one of Mozilla’s AI divisions. Their current product collects data and already has it:
