On June 16th 2022, I opened Firefox on my ipad and a bunch of tabs that *weren't mine* were loaded (in addition to my own open tabs). It was creepy and bizarre.

Out of caution, I closed the foreign tabs and changed my Firefox and Apple passwords. Then I resynced Firefox. Everything was fine for 3 days afterward.

Today, June 20th 2022, I opened Firefox on my ipad and 4 tabs *that are not mine* loaded, in addition to my open tabs. **I know these tabs aren't mine because they are about things that I have never heard of or searched for in my life and/or random places that aren't even in my state.

My significant other is as baffled as I am. My tech friends have never heard of this happening. Can anyone here figure out what's going on?

Hi

If you sign into your Firefox Account at https://accounts.firefox.com/signin, under "Connected Services", can you identify any and all the devices listed?

Hi Paul.

Yes, I can. Weirdly though, I get duplicates of each device that I cannot log out of. When I try to log out of duplicate listings, it logs me out of my current device as well.
