I have blocked all websites from accessing my geolocation by default in the privacy settings and there are no exceptions on the list.

And yet,

1) many websites I visit seem to have my geolocation, even though I have never shared any information with them

2) the last two suggestions on the first page when I search for anything are always linked to my location

How is this possible? How do I fix it?

Thank you

Before i play the game stock market live in Dreamisland i felt suspicious about the activity then when i use the privacy badger extention its look normal activity .But they are blocking also privacy badger after they know that something going on.Is there any way to block them permenently. Thank you so much

In order to digitally sign legal documents on a governative web portal, I've been obligated to install and use this Spanish governative tool on my win pc: https://autofirma.net/ My concern is about the fact that the Autofirma tool uses its own dialog to acquire Firefox Primary Password. So my question addressed to Firefox developers: since Autofirma acquire the Primary Password, can it also access my stored passwords? Or the use of Primary Password by Autofirma is limited to invoke Firefox?

Can You explain why you try to inform us about securities and improvements against privacy threats BUT now the Browser try to get access to a personal Folder? Does the Documents folder needed for internet browsing? Please, answer me otherwise I report this weird behaviour to authority. Thanks

Bonjour, Les boutons d'acceptation de cookies ne sont pas actifs et par conséquent les vidéos sur le site "Le Monde" via Firefox ne sont pas accessibles (cf capture d'écran). J'ai pourtant géré dans les exceptions le site "Le Monde.fr" mais il s'agit en l'occurrence d'autoriser la catégorie "contenus tiers" et je ne les connais pas individuellement. Comment procéder? Merci de votre aide. Cordialement.

Hello The cookie acceptance buttons are not active and therefore the videos on the "Le Monde" site via Firefox are not accessible (cf picture). I have managed the "Le Monde.fr" site in the exceptions but in this case it is a question of authorizing the category "third-party content" and I do not know them individually. How do I do it? Thank you for your help. Kind regards.

I like to prune my browser history manually to keep things I might need to get back to in the near future, but don't want to clog up my bookmarks with, and get rid of the rest. As of version 133, this has been made a lot more difficult, unless I'm missing an option somewhere. - In Settings, there's only the "all or nothing" approach for browser history, no way to be selective. (You can be selective when deleting cookies, but not history.) - In the History sidebar, where I used to do this, you can group by date or site. I used both: Group by site to avoid deleting the recent stuff I want to keep, and group by date to delete old things I no longer need (anything over a week old). It's no longer possible to delete e.g. everything from the gmail domain, or everything from October. I have to delete each. and. every. site. individually. For Gmail, for example, this means roughly a gajillion lines per visit. - In the sidebar, the keyboard Delete button no longer works either. I have to manually click the trash can icon, wait for it to vanish, click the next one...

Is the option to edit this efficiently completely gone, or am I missing something?

Software is Preventing Firefox From Safely Connecting to This Site

news.google.com is most likely a safe site, but a secure connection could not be established. This issue is caused by Private Internet Access, which is either software on your computer or your network.

What can you do about it?

news.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

   If your antivirus software includes a feature that scans encrypted connections (often called “web scanning” or “https scanning”), you can disable that feature. If that doesn’t work, you can remove and reinstall the antivirus software.
   If you are on a corporate network, you can contact your IT department.
   If you are not familiar with Private Internet Access, then this could be an attack, and there is nothing you can do to access the site.

After a clean install the master password dialog box reappeared. It would be quite helpful of Mozlilla to explain how to make this go away. The alternative is to never use FF on my desktop.

Firefox history contains youtube videos I didn't watch (and that aren't in my google youtube history). I've realised they go back May, roughly when I got my new linux machine and installed Firefox. However, they also seem to have been watched outside the time any of my devices apart from my phone are on. They're mostly just junk videos about minecraft etc.

See attached pic - the ones this morning between 5.48 and 7am I didn't have the laptop turned on. My phone was on though, but by the bed.

How has this happened and how can I track down how to stop it?

I'm writing this on my Windows desktop, can send details of other devices if useful.

Hi there,

I'll preface this by saying that I use a Primary Password (formerly Master Password) to protect my information on my computer.

Today I was going to pay a bill and noticed I couldn't autofill my payment methods. So, I went to my settings to get my payment information to copy paste it. I found out that when I go to look at my payment methods, even with a primary password, I can just double click on my saved CC information and it opens up showing everything. This contrasts with saved passwords where if I were to go look at one of my passwords, I have to confirm my password again before I can look at it. In my opinion, this is a security risk and it's quite odd that it is just readily available like that. There really should be another step to confirm your password before autofilling/checking it in settings. I see there is a 'device sign in' option in settings, but that's not really what I had in mind.

I'd love to hear from you if there is a way to add this protection or if there is technical reasoning behind this. Thank you,

Page seems to freeze, and mail/google-acces denied out of nowhere. Same message when trying to log in to MyHeritage. Message someone changed phonenumber recently. I didn´t. I am accessing internet via cable to Iphone. No wifi or bluetooth. I suspect someone is trying to get illegitimate access.

Ok, there are a couple things that seem related and are worrying me.

First, every time lately that I have signed in to something new (new online account, FEMA, etc), when the little window pops up to ask if I want to save the log in info, it doesn't have the password I entered, but instead an immense string of characters (I'd say several hundred) AND I just saw this last time as I was erasing the password, that it actually looks like it might be a web address (I just briefly saw http:// before it was erased)

The next thing that has just happened today (Is black Friday now like solar flare ID theft Friday or something?!?!) is that when I tried to sign in to...I think it only happened on Amazon...when I clicked on the email/user box it took me to my saved passwords page. Every time. I couldn't even enter the log in because it would just go to passwords. That's really really worrisome.

And, then, the last thing that I haven't had a problem with so far since getting a new computer is every now and then my computer would all of a sudden just start doing things on it's own. I was logged in to an online store once that had my card saved and my computer just ordered everything in my cart. Once I was browsing on the library and it cancelled all the books I had on hold. I have video where it would just start entering random stuff in fields.

I have changed my keyboard and the keyboard I have now is wired.

Any ideas on what this might be? Or do I really have some serious bad guys out there messing with me?

Hello,

I could really use some help with with setting up integrated, connected, and secure products across all devices and all accounts. I've somehow got various products and applications blocking and preventing other applications from working. I am not really sure what's going on as I am newer to these types of services. Any help is greatly appreciated, so thank you in advance.

Thanks, Josh
