The System Details list shows that you are using an outdated Firefox 68 version from the repositories of your Linux distro.

  • User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

You can verify that you meet the System Requirements (GTK+ and GLib) for the current Firefox release to see if you can update.

You need Widevine 4.10.2209.1 to be able to play DRM protected media, but unfortunately Widevine no longer supports 32 bit Linux (on Linux only 64 bit is supported), so you are out of luck.

Whenever you get a message / popup that software / files need to be updated;

DO NOT USE ANY OF PROVIDED LINKS

While this may be a legitimate message, it could also be Malware or a Virus. Anytime you want or need to check for upgrades, go to the website of the True Owner of the program in question. For example, to check out Firefox, go to https://www.mozilla.org


You can report such a site at; http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/ Google Report Phishing Page which is the same when done while on site by going to Help > Report Web Forgery
