I wonder why you all are seeing it and I never do...
Puzzling.

Working on desktop to order from Amazon & RUFUS starts right up as soon as Amazon opens
To: conservativesister
Sorry, I’ve never seen it ‘start up’. I always see ‘Rufus’ as a link I can click on at the top, and shown underneath each item. But it doesn’t do anything unless I ask it a question.
Maybe someone else can help you.

I use Apple's Safari browser, and Bing as my search engine. Rufus is offered as an option to click-on in Amazon's menu bar. It doesn't automatically show up.
I searched on Bing using: "how to turn off rufus on amazon permanently" and it came up with a series of steps you can take to do so.

Why would one need to ‘turn it off’ if it doesn’t automatically start doing stuff?

Everything on the phone is listening to you. I am at the point I keep my phone turned off completely when I’m not using it. I have no “alexa” or other smart devices.
The final straw was when the phone would listen to what I had on the radio (mostly AM radio) and the phone would have a dozen ads ready to go for products ‘they’ heard.
As for RUFUS. I think you’re stuck with it. It appears to be intergral to their new interface.

I have the same request regarding Gemini. I hate it.

Haha, I thought you meant Rufus, the cantankerous pet bull on Youtube. He likes to shake the rancher's 4 wheel runabout and toss it over for fun.

True. It doesn't pop-up on my laptop using Safari. It's actually listed in Amazon's menu bar to click on if you want to. But she was looking to turn it off, get rid of it, so I provided her with a search option to help her find what she was looking for.
