TL;DR: On the November 2025 Mozilla Support Community call, Mozilla provided updates on the recent controversy from the Japanese Support Mozilla community quitting over AI. During the call, Mozilla doubled down on AI, confirming that volunteers would be unable to disable AI translations across the entire Mozilla knowledge-base, with the American English version of articles serving as the blessed, canonical version. Locale specific contributions will be overwritten (by design) by AI.

Waterfox is as detached as it gets. Copy over your profile folder and it's about as intrusive and experience-altering as a browser update. You can still use Mozilla's addon store if you want. Your existing addons and data will all seamlessly migrate from FF to WF.

"This" particular event is about support pages in non-English languages, not anything in the browser specifically. So "it" isn't exactly capable of impacting the browser.
