MODERATORS
firefox develops an optional predictive search feature like every other search engine and browser has that actually protects user privacy that can easily be turned off so naturally the internet loses their mind over it and declares firefox dead.
don't worry, it's balanced out by the every other day threads of firefox shills screeching about how much more private it is and how it uses so much less ram.
people never want to admit that things aren't black and white.
