Awesome! This was the only way forward for a user-centric web browser like Firefox. Glad to see that they have listened to user feedback (and uproar) and backed down.
sort of hoping other similar things like hello do that too. thats how id like firefox to be, as a user. would be even better if default off at install ;-) (albeit id probably enable hello, its just nice to not be forced-in for such features)
I was bouncing between firefox and chrome, using them both more-or-less equally. The day the "hello" thing appeared, I uninstalled firefox. Too many useless and annoying things being added to firefox as core components where they do not belong. The fact that anybody can pay Mozilla to have their crappy addon forced onto all users is a problem.
