Google created Protobuf and git conflicts inside binary content in generated Go files. 
The overhead of disabling every single AI-first change in Firefox is already starting to weigh on firefox-forks.
My view on this hasn't really shifted in the last few months: unless an existing organization, with strong principles, steps forwards and commits to a hard fork I don't really see a future for Firefox.
(I think there are probably only 1-2 orgs with the combination of experience / maturity to actually pull that off, and none of them seem to be even considering that kind of future)
@sarahjamielewis not sure whether #firefox forks like in @iode's #iodéOS can also offer "AI disable by default" or remove any #AI code, but it seems a legitimite way to go. Also, it will be an #EU country to handle such modifications. #France #digitalsouvereignity

Sooo … @OH3CUF reported a GDPR violation of the #Meshtastic iOS app to the developers only to have the ticket not only closed but full-on deleted.
I could not let that stand, and opened another ticket roughly the same arguments. https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-Apple/issues/1456
