So the options are Block, Allow for Session, and Allow. Block and Allow are obvious; Allow for Session not so much. If multiple windows are used on same website at the same time, is each window a Session or are they all covered for the duration of that specific session? If Allow for Session, will they have access to what goes on only when Session is happening, or will they be updated with ensuing traffic the next time I open a Session? TIA, KBo

I have gone into about:config and changed all the telemetry entries et al to false to prevent as much datareporting as possible - what I want to do is prevent Firefox (135) from creating the 'datareprting' folder in my profile folder. I delete it every time I go into Firefox, which is an everyday pain because it returns with EVERY new session. I delete it 1. because they don't need it, and 2. more importantly, firefox is NOTICEABLY faster once it is deleted. People have been asking this since like FF 40. Can anyone solve this?

Extensions Security Deficit

I am observing a trend where popular extensions, such as the "I don't care about cookies" extension, change ownership and become derelict and/or malware, as clearly pointed out in recent reviews for the extensions. However, it takes multiple clicks to get to this information in the reviews, and there is very little curation.

I understand it is likely highly infeasible to audit extensions for malware in any comprehensive way, however I definitely feel that there is room for enhancement of the present processes.

I think this extension search process should be more proactive in informing users of these events. For example, rather than just displaying a star rating next to the extension name, displaying chronological trends would be more information-dense. Like if recent reviews are trending negative. This could also reward and incentivise extensions which are properly supported, (and not malware), displaying that their reviews are maintaining / increasing positivity over time.

A supporting feature could be publicising changes of ownership of an extension prominently - "This extension has changed ownership N times, the most recent change was Y-date to X-owner. Reviews have trended Z since that time".

Is something like this being worked on already? If so I am interested in contributing to it.

I have noticed that recently, whenever I start Firefox, BING is auto-opening a new tab *without my input.* Firefox is not my default browser (I use several), and I have removed ALL extensions and themes (except for ad-blocking, which has always been there), and ensured that pop-up blocker is enabled. My Windows 10 PC cannot find any malware; I hate being hijacked (esp. by Microsoft) and want this to stop! My other browsers do not do this...only Firefox. I have tried suggestions to modify REGEDIT, but can find no solutions to prevent this (other than not using Firefox anymore). Help, please! Thanks so much.

When I go to enmax.com using Firefox (up-to-date as of this posting) on my iPhone 8+ (iOS 16.7.10 up-to-date) I get a screen that says SSL error.

Safari and Chrome i get no SSL error, although I originally did also. Those 2 browsers eventually asked if I wanted to continue and trust it (see safari certificate pic below) and everything there is ok now. I like Firefox though and would like to use it.

There are no buttons or links of any sort on the Firefox SSL error screen to ‘continue anyway’.

I have done the app shutdown, phone restart and airplane mode toggle and tried enmax.com on different WiFi and 4G. No soap. It’s like there was a bad certificate that hs been fixed and Firefox is not taking it or letting go of the old one??

Suggestions? Other than to get a new phone?

Hello, I have an issue in Firefox browser. My operating system is the latest version of Kali Linux, and I am using Firefox ESR version 128.5.0esr Also, I don’t have any extensions installed on my browser, and the default theme is active.

Sometimes, an empty HTML file with a random name, such as LmFPlKJM.html, gets downloaded. This has happened to me twice so far. Both times, it happened while I was on a website that I had configured the server for. However, I didn’t do anything on the page; suddenly, I saw that the file was downloaded. I wanted to check the download link for these files, so I right-clicked and clicked "Copy Link" in the download tab, but the link showed as about:blank. Can you guide me on what this issue might be? Is it dangerous?
