You can even disable these features if you do not like them at all

As a smart person said:

BETTER IT NOT EXIST AT ALL

If I went to a restaurant, they placed a hot steaming stinky turd sandwich on my table and then went “oh, but you don’t have to have it”, I still wouldn’t fucking eat there.

Why should we be okay with the Turd Sandwich that is ~~crypto being served by Brave~~ LLM features served by Mozilla being opt-in???
