Yeah, I don’t doubt it. Still would have preferred if it wouldn’t have been turned on by default.

It’s a first world problem but I seriously dislike how random everything with language(and region) settings is. Half the time they follow my system defaults (UK English and Belgian datetime notation), 25% of the time the region settings are ignored and time is displayed weird and backwards with month first and the 12 hour format(MS is really bad with that). And the rest of the time bad geolocalisation people think everyone in Belgium speaks French even when that’s a minority language. So Firefox piling up on that with an unwanted request to translate languages I speak fluently is just annoying when I boot up my pc.
