Something that hasn't been made clear: Firefox will have an option to completely disable all AI features.

In june 1930, Henri Guillaumet, pilot on the Buenos Aires-Santiago mail service, crashed his Potez 25 in the Andes Mountains, waiting 2 days for rescue before finally leaving on foot. He walked for 3 days and 3 nights before collapsing in front of a shepherdess who came to his aid.
