LibreWolf: Privacy first fork of Firefox

Yeah I already have a copy installed as a backup. What is the recent AI BS in FireFox? Is this under "Firefox Labs"? I've never seen that setting, but nothing is checked off.

I wish they would make a browser with AI and leave AI out of the other one, so when you're downloading FF, you have 2 options.
