Firefox disturbingly fills in forms automatically
Everytime I enter facebook or any sub-site eg. by watching several videos/photos/etc. firefox keeps filling in the search form.

Content in the Facebook search bar is automatically filled/completed by Facebook, not Firefox.
Same happens at other websites too
The same information applies to other sites as well. It's the website that's offering that search suggestion, not Firefox.
