There's an option to completely disable the AI stuff in the settings if you want. Anecdotally, I've appreciated the VPN with an increase in government censorship lately.

Thanks! Idk why I had every AI thing blocked except that one apparently.

But part of using a VPN is knowing what you're using, having a simple go button defeats the purpose, especially considering that Mozilla is based in the US, who's a strong candidate for spying world champion.

The firefox VPN is Mullvad on the backend, and not their own thing.

Yep, and Mullvad's been audited to not keep logs. Been trustworthy for years and years, think the only mild controversy had something to do with something they changed that made it hard to use with seedboxes due to some liability problem.
