Google Maps cannot access my location when I'm in Firefox. I'm running Mac OS Big Sur on an M1 Mac. Safari works fine. Location Services is enabled in System Prefs.

I think it's a Firefox permissions issue. My IP address is showing accurately. As I said before, Safari is working fine.

Go to the web page. Once the page is loading, mouse to the address bar and Left-click the icon. There should be a right-arrow somewhere. Press it. Now select More Information. On the top select Permissions. In the menu, Make sure the ones you want to use are set to Ask or Allow.
