In Firefox 56+ the "Warn me when website try to redirect or reload the page" setting can no longer be found in Options/Preferences.

You can modify on the about:config page to enable or disable this feature.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can click the button to "Accept the Risk and Continue".
