AM seems to be mostly talk radio. Thus, I interpret this as "don't kill the echo chamber".

There are some situations where a kill-switch is useful - this seems like one of them per TFA. So, I don't think "we" are against kill-switches per se, but rather against undisclosed/secret kill-switches. Firefox is open source, so the kill-switch mechanism is visible in the source somewhere - right? It would take some code review to be "aware", but it is openly available to be found. Whereas... Microsoft, Apple and Amazon (Kindle) are delivering closed source products where a kill-switch mechanism would be hidden/secret unless explicitly disclosed by the manufacturer.

In 1999 Emory University's Michael C. Carlos Museum bought the Egyptian contents from the Niagra Falls Museum and relocated this collection to Atlanta. Subsequently, one of the mummies was positively identified as the missing Ramesses I and was returned to Egypt. More info here: http://www.carlos.emory.edu/RAMESSES/
