FYI, Firefox has enabled the "Donate your body to fuel data centers" option to true by default, so if you want to opt-out, make so set this hidden flag to false every browser update.
browser.ml.donateFlesh = false
✨ You always have a choice in Firefox, including whether we use your husk to enhance our AI. More post-mortem controls coming soon.
Oct 15, 2026, 9:26 PMSure, but if they defaulted to false, no one would turn it on so you can see why they have to set it to true.
Oct 15, 2026, 9:29 PM@catsalad ok that one made me double face palm
@catsalad They can take my body over my cold dead ... Ummm
@catsalad :awesome:

@catsalad
I personally don't mind the OSS body snatchers and frankly I think you all are overreacting to this.
@catsalad It’s not a bad thing because you can opt out, you see.
@catsalad
You're not wrong, just early.
@catsalad LibreWolf has it off by default, and also you have the option to donate your body to wolves.
@foolishowl @catsalad far more reasonable use of ressources
@SRAZKVT@tech.lgbt @foolishowl@social.coop @catsalad@infosec.exchange
Can I donate Elon Musk's body to the wolves? The brain is un-used!
@catsalad i turned it off a month ago. I just checked and an update turned it back on :c
After they've removed my brain, and hooked it up to the compute side of the data centre, what else are they going to do with the leftover bits?
@catsalad Posts like this are the silver lining on the dystopia we are living in.

Oct 15, 2026, 11:28 PM@catsalad@infosec.exchange Alternative option, is there something I can introduce into my body that would crash their data centers when they try to use me to fuel them?
...maybe if I just have a surgeon wire a usb port to some nerves and periodically update the usb drive I plug into it with whatever the latest slop exploit is? :bunhdthink:
@deathkitten @catsalad I've heard a bottle of 50 yo single malt whisky will do this
Not sure how true that is, but no one who's tried it has complained
@staringatclouds @deathkitten @catsalad
I tried, it hurt like hell, I gave up, drank the whiskey instead
@jjvz @deathkitten @catsalad Ah sorry, I should have said drinking a bottle...
😳
@deathkitten @catsalad A virus? 😉
Probably a maliciously not, do not click.
@catsalad
Elon, you've XPRIZE the biggest firework
#news #trump #elonmusk #Monsterdon
Fantastic. I'm so happy for this!
Oct 16, 2026, 12:35 AM@catsalad This is why I switched to EarthCoyote 5 years ago when they made the tabs semicircular. I knew semicircular tabs would lead to flesh harvesting eventually!!
Oct 16, 2026, 12:43 AM@catsalad Firefox is people
@catsalad Is this a donation before or after I die ?
@catsalad it's soylent green... power.
@catsalad are there settings to donate my flesh to other use cases?
@catsalad set all.the.things to false
@catsalad
So now I need to keep my pockets full of fireworks...just in case.
@catsalad To be honest, the fact that Mozilla gives control over it instead of shoving it down our throats is a huge thing comparing to other corporations. And they are not sharing any private data to do so. Majority of models, including translations runs locally on your computer instead of sending the translation query to a remote server, so you are not donating anything.
With marketing and AI features, they are looking to be attractive to enterprise and investors as Firefox enters obscurity and AI is the only way in age of corporate AI psychosis. I am yet to see different ideas how to fuel Mozilla's income and reduce dependency on Google money, but all I hear is criticism.
@ilvesluola Sorry, but my body is already reserved as the last meal I give my cat (as nature intended)
@catsalad
Looked in about:config - not seeing this on v158 here in Australia.
Maybe Aussies bodies contain too much vegemite to be useful.
@thomascoven @catsalad It’s gradually rolling out and will be available in your country soon :)
@earthshine @catsalad at least they are honest about the whole thing
@catsalad I see ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with this! THANK YOU MOZILLA for giving me a option to turn it off! You are the CHAMPIONS of the open source after all so you can do WHATEVER you want and i think it should be ILLEGAL to critisize this! (Average firefox reddit community post)
@catsalad poor grandma will never figure this out
The Linux kernel with help from the Linux Foundation and their partners like Microsoft, now has AI sockets where a person can connect directly to the Microsoft Borg ☠️
Those Meta Ray-Ban pervert glasses? They are the beta Borg hardware to assimilate into the Microsoft Collective.
@catsalad ? How?
@lindasgoluppiart To access these hidden settings, just load about:config in your URL bar, or if you're using Firefox mobile try:
chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtml
@catsalad
A.I. is people, people!
"Donate your body to fuel data centers"
I hope that means after death? Right?! 😬
@catsalad AI Organ Donor.
@huronbikes @catsalad i don't know it! should i watch it?
@huronbikes @catsalad sounds good!
@catsalad Firefox Green is people.
They want flesh in the USA.
The need for blood is rising in Canada.
The future is bleak.
