I think it's unfortunate that everything gets called AI, but people are clearly upset by the LLM stuff, which has not been around for decades. Also, it's still pretty easy to disable JS AFAIK so that comparison kind of proves the point that this should be an option.

I really don't get folks who defend tech paternalism - where features are pushed on users because "daddy knows best".

Opting out of a specific feature is completely reasonable, I can get behind the push back on tech paternalism, but opting out of a basically unconnected set of features based on an implementation detail is the bit that I think is unnecessary.
