  • I know plenty of people that say they're Christians that are good people. Pretty sure all the Christians i know that attend church voted for these christofascists though

  • I'm out. There is no point taking with someone that repeatedly lies to try to support their point. Look, I'm against the majority of LLM usage and implementation as well, and I'd rather most of it not be in firefox as well, but:

    1. You keep making up things firefox does that it doesn't. I'm not even convinced you've used it
    2. You keep talking about UX and dark patterns but you're obviously making it to as you go
    3. Basing conversation on obvious falsehoods is a waste of time

  • It looks like this page has links, you can summarize them using a clanker” on a frequent basis.

    That doesn't happen. I don't recall firefox ever popping up a modal while I'm browsing.

  • You're completely sidestepping what I actually said and attempting to get me to defend something I didn't say. Very honest of you

  • And the fact that the confirmation feels “menacing” and defaulted to cancelling the opting-off (i.e. pressing “esc” or clicking outside the window; one must click the primary-colored “block” button which, contrasted to a grayish “Cancel” button, may psychologically induce the user into thinking “block” is a dangerous action), quite similar to the about:config warning screen.

    I don't think it's menacing at all. It gives an informative list of features, which is nice to know. I could see a lot of people wanting to turn off all AI then realizing they actually want local translate instead of sending everything to google.

    And you've got the button intents mixed up. Primary color is always the encouraged action in that kind of design. Dark pattern would be if the colors were flipped.

  • Other than link previews all the features they are opt-in in the sense you'd have to actually use the feature.

    1. Local translation which only happens when you trigger it I believe (and is cool)
    2. Smart tab groups which i don't think anyone cares about and only happens when you ask it to
    3. Link previews which I think happens on link hover which is undesirable if you don't want to accidentally do it (edit: see correction in reply)
    4. A sidebar chatbot integration which you'd have to use on purpose
    5. Someone said perplexity in search engine options which you'd have to do on purpose

  • Look man, if it's a good solution it's a good solution. You're attacking things that haven't been proposed (by the bill in the OP).

    I actually don't think legislation in a US state is a good way to create a technology standard so I wouldn't like to see this pass, but it's honestly the best way that I've seen to provide age verification for websites.

    It puts the onus on the parents to set the date correctly and takes it off of businesses to comply by doing it themselves where privacy is definitely at risk. If this is what was implemented it would not harm privacy and it would defang the "protect the children" arguments they constantly use to justify completely destroying privacy.

    You can rant and rage until you're red in the face, but those are the facts.

  • So you didn't even read it before writing a diatribe accusing me of supporting things I absolutely don't. It literally says in the fucking bill that you just input it into the device.

    Provide an accessible interface at account setup that requires an account holder to indicate the birth date or age of the user of that device to provide a signal regarding the user's age bracket (age signal) to applications available in a covered application store;

  • Iirc California had a similar proposal to this. I actually think it's not a terrible idea at the core. It's basically an API for parental controls. You set up a device (or account on a device) and say "this is a device for a kid" and that gets used for everything. It actually makes a lot of sense to do something in that direction. Part of the reason people are convinced something needs to be done is because managing parental controls across the different myriad services and apps is a labyrinth that tech savvy parents can barely navigate, and less savvy parents don't stand a chance.
