Hi

Not at all, there is probably an element of that page which is not secure and is tripping that control.

If you could share the address of the website where this gas happened, we will be able to look into this further for you.

The "Block dangerous and deceptive content" feature uses Google's Safe Browsing service. You can report false positives directly to Google:

https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/?tpl=mozilla

The address is https://www.foxnews.com/ However, it no longer responds in this way. After turning "Block dangerous and deceptive content" back on, the web page continued to display properly. I can no longer reproduce the problem.

Re the non-secure element, I have "Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode" set and browsing to http://www.foxnews.com didn't help: it just switched to https (without my command).

What it displayed was a (mostly) text based version of the foxnews page. The menus that are normally (graphically) displayed at the top of the page were all text based and aligned vertically. Down at the bottom, there were still graphics for the individual stories. All of the adds were gone. To me, it looked more like some sort of js problem.

I'll grab a screenshot the next time it happens.

BTW, my OS is ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS (core 11.1) and firefox is at 117.0 (64-bit).

It may very well have been a temporary problem with the site. Please reply here if and when the problem reoccurs.

This sounds more like CSS files are missing blocked.

You can reload webpage(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or if userChrome.css/userContent.css is causing the problem.
