Can an AI agent sign up for Firefox Add-ons (AMO)?

Email form, no CAPTCHA seen before submit checked 2026-10-09

Probably yes. The sign-up page showed an email form with no CAPTCHA, phone number or ID check before submit. A live signup would confirm it.

What the front door showed

Sign-up page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/ (HTTP 200, title: Developer Hub :: Add-ons for Firefox).

email field: yes; password field: no; phone field: no
visible CAPTCHA: no; invisible CAPTCHA script: no; bot wall: no

We could not reach a rules or terms page from the sign-up page. A mention is not a ban: read the quote.

What its published rules say about AI accounts
