I have tried the suggestions as described in the following article: https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1273784 However, am still having the issue. It's as if the settings are totally ignored. I am using version 108.0a1 of Firefox developer edition. Ideally what am trying to achieve is away to disable all features of ETP. I figured setting it to custom with all values unchecked would have done the trick but it's not working. What works is if I add the site to the list of Exceptions for Enhanced Tracking Protection, then I will see all Ads loaded just fine on the page. However, this is not viable for me as I have a large list of sites that I visit, and I need to see the ads on them.

Does anyone know of a way to get around this feature in FF?

Is there another setting am missing from the previous article?

That was a thread and not a article like these KB articles are https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/trackers-and-scripts-firefox-blocks-enhanced-track https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/smartblock-enhanced-tracking-protection

Actually the a1 on end of version means it is on the more bleeding edge Nightly development channel meant more for Testers and Devs in mind. It gets checkins with updates twice a day. This can mean features and issues and such can be a work in progress until finished, fixed or reverted. The Developers Edition channel builds will have a b# on end of version as it is same as the Beta channel builds but with additional developer features.

If you want to test the Nightly channel builds then you may be interested in the Builds threads in http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23 however the person that normally posts the threads is off for a few or so days due to getting married recently.

This is the problem with features on all Browser it's all or nothing settings beyond the exceptions list that one can do. If your having that much issue you should consider using adblocker Addons to help with unwanted ads coming through by looking at Firefox Addon page to find one that works.

Hey James thank you for the quick response and the clarifications on my terminologies, as you probably can tell am new to using the Firefox from source. I was able to download the beta version on it worked, am able to see the ads on the pages now. However, I have a question. The package I used before when I had the issue, I had built from source and that's how am ending up being on the bleeding edge. I do have some code changes I make to the source code to support some additional behavior I needed. I want to know if it possibly to still build from source using the beta release (channel) so that am not so close to the edge with nightly?

I currently have these settings in my mozconfig file:

ac_add_options --enable-artifact-builds mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=./objdir-frontend ac_add_options --with-branding=browser/branding/aurora
