Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.

I am 75 years old. I am RETIRED there is NO REASON for an organization to be in CONTROL of ANYTHING on my computer. How do I STOP THIS?

I don't know if this is related or not, but Something is BLOCKING my ability to use check boxes or circles. Sometimes I can see the box but my response is NOT VISIBLE. Tonight I was trying to complete a survey and the questions were visible but I was COMPLETELY UNABLE to see the answer boxes/circles. Sometimes they would be briefly visible when the page initially opened but QUICKLY DISAPPEARED and were NOT identifiable by manipulating my cursor using mouse, space bar, or tab bar.

I have stayed with Firefox as my default browser for several DECADES and PREFER NOT to change now. BUT this MUST STOP!

1. You don't have any antivirus? I'm sure they can control anything on your computer. Enter about:policies in the address bar and check your active policies. 2. Visibility issues are most likely caused by the Dark Reader addon.
