I see that this addon called Rotate Youtube Video (+ Zoom / Mirror) is restricted for violating Mozilla policies.

Has anyone taken look into it what was exact violation? I am curious if it was stealing info on background? It just says it violated policies but I want to know if it is safe to keep using it? Like if it was disabled for legal reasons then I would not care but if it was disabled for containing malware then I would care. Any ideas?

Добрый день. Пару недель назад после очередного обновления браузера (использую ESR, на данный момент моя версия - 128.14.0esr (32-разрядный)) столкнулся с проблемой. Раньше, если я открывал через ссылку на любой странице новую вкладку, она сразу же грузилась через VPN-дополнение. Но сейчас любая ссылка при открытии новой вкладки будто бы открывает страницу по дефолту - и не грузит вообще ничего, может больше минуты пытаться загружать, а потом просто остановиться и повиснуть. Помогает только полное обновление страницы или скопировать ссылку в новую вкладку (можно в той же открывающейся и зависшей вкладке просто нажать "энтер" в адресной строке, тогда браузер всё обновит и загрузит как положено - через VPN). Проверил на нескольких VPN - везде такая фигня. При этом если заранее открыть новую вкладку и просто скопировать в неё ссылку - всё загрузится моментально. Однако это очень муторно делать, когда одновременно со страницы открывается по десять новых вкладок.

Это баг или какая-то новая поднастройка у вкладок, что они открываются по дефолтным настройкам?

Just as the title explains. Firefox isn't updating any of my extensions. I hit detect updates, it says it didn't find any, but several blue icons on the extension page show up stating that the extension can be updated. When I select it I am able to click "update", but, as those quotation marks suggest, it does absolutely nothing. Restarting the browser also does not update the extensions. The only way I can get them to update is if I remove and read the extension.

I have been using Evernote very heavily for well more than 10 years, and it has always worked well on my Linux MInt computers on FIrefox. Recently, the Evernote Web Clipper stopped working. I suspect the problem may somehow involve the "containers" extension. I like and have used the Facebook "Fence" which I believe has become or been replaced by the Facebook container. Recently, there was a change where more containers were added. Their functionalities are something that I do not understand, but it was after this change to Firefox when my Evernote Web Clipper ceased functioning and began reporting an unknown error. For my purposes, I want the Evernote Web Clipper to be able to be able to resume clipping items from web pages, including the entire web page, to my Evernote system regardless of any "container" functions. I have used Firefox and Evernote on Windows computers in the past, but I much prefer Linux Mint (numerous versions over the course of the last several years).

The "Browser Websocket Client" addon ( https://github.com/abeade/browser-websocket-client ) was automatically disabled. The addons manager says:

> This extension is restricted for violating Mozilla’s policies and has been disabled. You can enable it, but this may be risky.

However, I cannot find any information about which policies the addon violated or when. If it was logging or modifying data, I want to know to what extent I may be compromised from using the extension. If it was for lack of maintenance, I want to know so I can make an informed decision about whether to keep using it, because the addon was still useful to me and my work as of recently.

I have Avast Antivirus that i purchased and it came with Avast Anti Track which i can not get installed because Firefox won't let it WHY?

Oops! We can’t find that page

If you’ve followed a link from another site for an extension or theme, that item is no longer available. This could be because:

   The developer removed it. Developers commonly do this because they no longer support the extension or theme, or have replaced it.
   Mozilla removed it. This can happen when issues are found during the review of the extension or theme, or the extension or theme has been abusing the terms and conditions for addons.mozilla.org. The developer has the opportunity to resolve the issues and make the add-on available again.

Try visiting the page later, as the theme or extension may become available again. Alternatively, you may be able to find what you’re looking for in one of the available extensions or themes, or by asking for help on our community forums.
