I'm highly suspicious of an extensions i downloaded a while ago. It has blocked facebook from tracking me as some websites i access automatically uses Facebook. When I checked the manager to make an exception for a website I was using, I don't see it there, not even to disable it. I even double checked if my only blocker, UBlock Origin is preventing it from showing but it's not even there either. So now I'm worried my data is compromised.

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh).

Now open the Add-ons Manager. Can you see that add-on now?

Can you provide a link to where you got the add-on?

The System Details list shows 18 extensions. You should see them all listed on the about:support page. Starting Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode should reveal them all.

yeah I went into Troubleshoot mode, and I still didn't see it. I don't see it in the store, I remember it being something to do with Facebook Container blocker? it was something very generic. But looking through the add-on search, I'm confident that it's no longer there.
