I hope this judge allowed the Asst AG to make a laughable ass of himself to later publicly shame him. But it’s the US and the South, so who knows?

From the article:

Mozilla seized an opportunity to bring trustworthy AI into Firefox, largely driven by the Fakespot acquisition and the product integration work that followed. Additionally, finding great content is still a critical use case for the internet. Therefore, as part of the changes today, we will be bringing together Pocket, Content, and the AI/ML teams supporting content with the Firefox Organization.

Seems like they’re planning to incorporate AI into the browser.

Provide the case? I’m very interested to see this.

If anyone is willing to buy them.

If they weren’t the original malicious actor, then their quality control sucks. Either way, they shipped a booby-trapped system. Trusting them again will be hard for a lot of people.

We’re going to agree to disagree about that. Being caught red-handed would trigger an immediate mea culpa if they want to preserve plausible deniability and try again later.

It’s reasonable to consider whether to trust a company that shipped spyware in the first place. I would have a hard time with that.

I’m not aware of that ever happening. It may have, but every case that I’m aware of has ended quickly with the court enforcing the TOS that users “voluntarily” deciphered and agreed to.

Their TOS most likely forbids class action suits. It most likely requires individual or “small batch” arbitration that benefits Sony.
