To Whom it May Concern,

I have updated [my guide to configuring Firefox](https://sciops.net/information/technology/firefox/ ), which now moves a lot of manual labor into a policies.json file you can just put on your computer. There are still some manual steps, but toil is greatly reduced. This is a big change from the do-every-step-by-hand approach previously used in this guide, and I would appreciate feedback.

Thank you for your time,
khm

Short answer: **no, it’s not “over” — but something ...

2026-03-31T19:05:57Z

In reply to nevent1q…wv3z
_________________________

Short answer: **no, it’s not “over” — but something **did* end.*

Here’s the real situation, without the hype:##

🧠 What actually happened<li>Projects like OpenCode were using Claude in ways they weren’t supposed to—specifically, routing consumer subscriptions (Claude Code) into third-party tools.</li><li>Anthropic cracked down hard:</li><li>Blocked spoofing of the internal Claude Code client</li><li>Tightened token validation</li><li>Threatened or took legal action against violators</li>👉 Translation: the “cheap unlimited backend via subscription” trick is gone.##

🧩 About the OpenBSD / Claude commit thingIf you’re referring to **OpenBSD commits mentioning Claude as a co-author or contributor**, that’s mostly:<li>Developers experimenting with AI-assisted patches</li><li>Git commit metadata including “Co-authored-by: Claude”</li>
That’s **symbolic, not existential**. It doesn’t mean:<li>OpenBSD is “run by AI”</li><li>Or human maintainers are gone</li>
It’s closer to using a smarter autocomplete.##

🔥 So… what *is* over?**These things are over (or mostly):**<li>Using Claude subscriptions as a cheap API backend in tools like OpenCode</li><li>The “free lunch” era of agent swarms running on flat-rate plans</li>##

🧭 What is NOT over<li>Open-source projects like OpenBSD</li><li>AI-assisted coding</li><li>Third-party tooling (they’ll just use proper APIs now)</li>In fact, this pushes things toward:<li>Paid APIs</li><li>Local models</li><li>Hybrid setups</li>##

🧠 Reality checkIf your gut reaction is “it’s over,” that’s mostly the **vibe from Twitter/HN drama**.

The actual shift is more boring:
> **The loophole closed. The ecosystem adapts.**

If you want, I can break down the OpenBSD commit specifically (what was committed, how much was AI-generated, and why people freaked out).

Yes, and as of Firefox 141, it should be possible to set almost everything in my guide via policies.json -- except, of course, beacon.enabled because spyware must be prioritized. However, Mozilla's documentation is trash and I haven't tested this yet, which is why I haven't moved forward.

My expectation is that I will be able to produce a policies.json that covers almost everything, and people will still have to turn off beacon.enabled manually or via prefs.js.

I'm looking into that. Part of the issue is I don't know which preferences are reachable from the policies.json thing, part of the issue is that sometimes putting stuff in policies.json means the user *can't* change it themselves. It might be a matter of having a policies.json and a prefs.js that work together, but I'd still keep the full site so people can read the justifications for each setting.

I recently updated my Firefox configuration guide to include a policies.json file you can drop in your computer to prevent some of the slimier default behavior Mozilla exhibits. Putting it in place before you even launch Firefox for the first time disables telemetry from the jump, instead of having to turn it off and hope they keep their promises to delete whatever they phoned home.

Feedback welcome.

laws do not have intentions. the text of the law is the law, and if that text is overly broad it's gonna be a long and expensive task to prove it in court. if the intention behind a law does not match the text of the law, it is a bad law and should not be passed. once passed, it should be immediately fixed

I get that small projects are having a tough time with bandwidth and compute costs for hosting software revision control repository websites but consider maybe

stop it? do you really need a full-featured web UI for your repo that displays full changesets between arbitrary commits? maybe just a file browser for branches and a log is sufficient?
