It sounds like he doesn't want update notifications. I'm sure that that's possible, but I've no idea what sort of update notification he's upset about.

A browser is something that you should keep updated. I'm fully aware of the "Remind me in next time" trap that a lot of tracking and data harvesting is shoved behind, but just update your fucking browser dude. Sometimes, the developers actually know better than the users.
No? Firefox is way behind and even if it wasn’t, the browser is an enormous attack surface so they have to keep improving security.
Wow, shut up. I'll take security over your weird delusions any fucking day.
