I have opened the browser (empty), and the Internet leaves, something is loaded. What can be loaded, go? In settings of the browser I have turned off many functions (updates, etc.).

if you enable the "net" logging in the browser console it will display all the urls that are loaded, so this should give you an answer of what traffic happens while you're opening the browser and if it's related to a functionality in firefox, an addon or a website that's active...

You can create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

It is unlikely a problem in it. I have established new Firefox on clean system.

go to the net section and enable all the logging there (like shown in my screenshot). you want to disable all the other sections to make it less noisy.

in my sample i see connections to the tiles server (to render the stuff on the new tab/homepage), telemetry submission, an ocsp server to verify ssl connections and a connection to the update server to check for a new version of firefox close after the start of the browser.
