@firefoxwebdevs I'd like a browser that doesn't learn me, but rather serves pages as I request them and deletes everything when I'm done. 

I can't see how privacy exist in any realm with AI or machine learning. To learn means it's retaining info I don't want it to.

Please feel free to correct me.

@rayocentric it sounds like you want to use "Private Window" for everything, but let me check that's actually what you want:

For decades now, browsers have observed what's typed into the address bar, so when you type some characters, it can suggest the mostly likely destination. Firefox does this locally, but the search engine also provides suggestions.

Firefox doesn't use AI for this.

Is this one of the features you want disabled?
