    That makes me want to use firefox less.

    I don’t need a nanny-control to tell me what’s fake and what’s real.

      Sifting through reviews to find real criticism is tedious. I never asked for this feature expecting it to become a reality, but I won’t turn my nose at time saved at 0 expense. As long as it isn’t used for marketing or fingerprinting, what’s the issue? Note: I might be missing your sarcasm, I’m tired.

      This has the same energy as someone who says they want to drive a car less because it has seatbelts installed.

      Like fine - its a useful tool that might prevent you being scammed which just displays information you can easily ignore- better run away.

        A seatbelt is an actual safety device that works and isn’t being controlled by some other company.

        That’s not the same thing.

      Then you can ignore/turn it off? It’s also a function to protect users from malicious online behavior, dunno how that could be interpreted as a nanny, unless you also insist browsers shouldn’t warn you when accessing known malware links or similar. If you really insist on having the absolute freedom to not be advised about it when you’re being scammed then go off I guess.
