Why my personal email address was currently visible to the whole internet via Mozilla's Discourse forum. It will show up in Google Search results

I request the deletion of this topic because I created it 3 and a half years ago because of : https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/revive-session-manager-version-0-8-1-13-stoped-develpment-in-2017-01-30/57783/1

• That my email was visible all this time on the platform during this periode of 03 and a half years very malicious people targeting me with daily spam on my email box, I judge that I have the right to request a deletion because of the nature of private law that I judge has not been maintained by the best browser in the world. • I was informed by pure chance by an anonymous message from a person called "Chris H" who showed me the correct method to change this error in any case this person had the courage to address several people so that there is a strong resolution that makes people react to solve the problem.

With my most sincere greetings for your company "Mozilla" that I have admired since the beginning of the internet thank you for agreeing to delete this topic because if there is not a solution to delete my email from the internet then the only way is to delete the topic in question thank you

Imitating Firefox

which is clearly imitating Firefox and can be harm to our PCs. Please look into this. Thanks.

I already occasionally run into sites that don't behave well with Firefox, forcing me to use another browser in some cases.

Will enabling these settings tend to contribute to exacerbating the problems?

I've been using Firefox for years with absolutely no problems. Today, my wife was trying to do a search, and, instead of seeing search results she was directed to a page called FunSafe Tab, which I understand is a browser highjacked. How can I get rid or this, or am I stuck with Chrome and/or Safari?

If you open this website: https://www.zonnebloem.nl/ with the option Enhanced Tracking Protection the cookiebot popup banner is not shown as the third party tracking cookie from domain https://consent.cookiebot.com is protected and NOT loaded.

Does this mean Mozilla Firefox sees the https://consent.cookiebot.com cookie as a third party tracking cookie that needs to be blocked as nobody gave consent to load the cookiebot consent popup?

Question 1: Is according to Mozilla Firefox https://consent.cookiebot.com a third party tracking cookie that needs to be blocked if you as a user want to have guarantees over your privacy online?

Question 2: Is it not strange to see Firefox blocking a widely used cookie consent system to protect users by giving consent to select which cookies will be set yes/no?

I keep getting: Save Login for http://blabla.xyz?!!

if i say 'never' it just keeps asking.

now your saying. aah. thats cause it cannot differentiate a ipv4 and a hostname.


The gethostbyname() function returns a structure of type hostent for the given host name. Here name is either a hostname or an IPv4 address

i wonder then what this browser does. not remembering by name. here thus the word never is better replaced by -> ask me again next time.

What is this tab, and why is it hidden? My usually good Google-fu didn't turn up much other than TrustArc is a cookie consent component with a terrible reputation for slowing down some sites that use it.

Can someone offer more information? Thanks.

Firefox releases email addresses and our data to third parties!

I installed the Arc browser and Arc offered to load my bookmarks from mozilla. Out of curiosity, I let it, and it loaded my bookmarks and folders smoothly. Arc didn't navigate Firefox to the login page, so Firefox released my information without asking me.

What probably happened in the background was that the Arc browser told Firefox which email address it was requesting data from, and Firefox handed over the data to it "on notice". Firefox was not even convinced that the real owner of the email address asked the Arc browser to synchronize the folders.

Is it the famous Firefox reliability?

After the upgrade to Mac verion 129.0 (64-bit) nothing works anymore. Even turning off the new tracker crap per tab it is not loading a single page correctly even after cleaning the cache. If that does not get fixed ASAP I have been the longest with Firefox, like over 20 years. This new untested tracker stopping just sucks and needs to stop!!!!!!!!

How can I get back to previous version??????
