Hello, Why Firefox directly denied my localhost location service request and return permission denied error. I checked all of the settings and my localhost is not in block list. Also, Firefox is not detecting location service, it shows "No Blockable content detected on this page" while I clicked a ( i ) icon [on left-hand side of URL bar]. But, same localhost is executed perfectly on Microsoft Edge and Mircosoft Internet Explorer.

How to fix this? or how to add manually allow list for local host?
