pages won't load in Private mode

In Firefox on my Android phone, when I'm in private mode, many of my websites won't load. I think it has something to do with redirects.

For example, if I'm on a site and click an image, it goes to a blank screen and won't finish loading. However if I turn off private, it works just fine but I can see the urls changing a few times before finally getting to the destination.

This has been happening for the last few versions of FF but it used to work. I believe Im on some version in the 90's now.

On second thought...never mind. I just tested all my bookmarks and this issue seems to be only with 1 or 2 of them. They must be doing something strange and they are not that important.

So unless there is just some setting the I can turrn off for private mode that prevents to many redirects, I'll just continue on.

Thanks.

Hi

Assuming you would like us to look into this for you, do you have an example of a website where this is happening?

What level of enhanced tracking protection do you have set?

Do you have any add-ons installed in Firefox for Android?
