Unreliable Pot, meet unbelieveable kettle:
https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/ai/microsoft-copilot-ai-user-choice/
"The Copilot rollout followed the same playbook we've come to expect from Microsoft: use automatic installs, physical hardware, and default settings to force behaviors."
/me points at the existance of an AI kill switch in firefox, instead of an AI enable switch

#DefaultsMatter, because while *some* people are confident enough to fiddle with them, many people are not. And it should not be necessary for them.
Everyone deserves software already configured for #UserNeeds, not some #Feudal master.

Lots of people are enjoying this pithy expression of the problem (not original to me, to be sure).
I'll direct readers to someone who has better words than mine for exploring this evil shift in expectations.

Recommended for whom? Do #Mastodon developers think distractions should be on by default?
No, let's not "recommend" auto-play of arbitrary animated images, sent by whoever in the timeline.
Just because it's typical on centralised platforms, doesn't make it a good default for the #Fediverse.

@FreePietje Always online means surveillance with the tech we have. Having a cellular device with you (turned off) for when you really need it would be a compromise. But off by default. #DefaultsMatter

@ataraxia937 Much of the malware is pre-installed at time of purchase. #DefaultsMatter, most people are not able to judge whether they can or should remove something that's mildly hidden on their device. So it stays.
Increasingly, #SurveillanceCapitalism is hand in hand with #PoliceState like #Australia and #China, in *mandating* #surveillance and other #malware on your device.
So, while the user has some amount of agency, it is over-estimated. Many people have a lot less effective choice.
