How do I delete the Firefox PDF Signer Extension from my PC?

Recently, when I bring up a PDF document, there is a promotion for a signature that appears on the right side of the document. When scrolling, that side of the document can't be read, if you want to print, it obscures the printer properties. I have no need of a signature for anything I do with PDF documents, so how do I get rid of the promotion? The promotion reads: "Sign on the dotted line---or anywhere! "Draw, type, or upload your signature, then place it exactly where you want. Save your go-to signature for next time."

I am attempting to locate the "manage containers" option on the container drop down menu but it is not there. I have read several other threads and have tried cntrl+ about:config "which did not have a false option" clicking right, and then maybe left and every which way I could click, but nothing. The drop down menu does not move so as to reposition and possibly find what I can't find. I do have my scaling pretty high, I wonder if that could be the problem. Any help would be appreciated, you know how we like to change these kinds of options.

I am the developer of FastF1, an open source Python package for downloading and analyzing Formula 1 race results, timing data and telemetry. The package is widely used in the fan community for independent analysis of results. For some advanced features, the addon requires users to authenticate with their Formula1/F1TV account. Since their services don't have an open login API, a companion addon is required to allow users to sign in using their browser and the official website.

I have just noticed that my developer account has been banned and the addon was blocked in Firefox. I have not received any email about this and don't know why exactly this decision was made. I'd like appeal this and reinstate my account and the addon, but I don't know how to proceed from here.

FastF1 and the companion addon are fully open source and intend no harm to users. https://github.com/theOehrly/Fast-F1 https://github.com/theOehrly/fastf1-companion

I hope this problem can be resolved.

I seem to have been using Firefox for so long, that I’ve forgotten some of the basics. I have two Apple systems. An M1, 2020 MacBook Pro and an Intel Mac Mini. Due to issues with the MacBook Pro I needed to reformat it and am slowly adding all my applications. When I added Firefox, logged in and entered the confirmation code and synced my settings none of my extensions appeared in the menu bar (please see the screenshot as to how they appear on the Mac Mini). So the question I have is what do I need to do to get them there on the MacBook Pro.

When I first install an extension, there is an option to pin that extension icon to the Firefox taskbar. But if I later unpin it, then I can never repin it back to the taskbar. In older editions of Firefox, long ago, there were ships wheel icons next to the extensions in the extension list. There was choice to "pin to the taskbar", but now there are no ship's wheel icons in the list. And therefore no way to repin the extension to the taskbar. Therefore, once I unpin an extension icon from the taskbar, I have no way to pin it back up there.

When I went to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/ and decided to purchase a Mozilla VPN prepaid annual subscription part of the reason was this "feature"

"Easy Firefox integration with the Mozilla VPN extension (Windows only)"

There is nothing easy when clicking on the download for the Mozilla VPN extension yields a message that the add-on or extension has been blocked. The explanatory link provided is https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-cause-issues-are-on-blocklist. That lets you know that:

"When add-ons violate Mozilla’s policies, compromise user safety or privacy, or fail to meet user expectations, Mozilla takes action. This may include disabling add-ons in Firefox to maintain a secure and reliable user experience. "

So, when will Mozilla stop violating Mozilla's policies so that the Mozilla VPN add-on is fit for use on Firefox v 149.0 [without free VPN] running on WIN10 64?

When I am typing a question in a thread on forum type sites like Woodworkingtalk.com I seem to constantly popups that pull the cursor from the box. I constantly have to click the mouse back in the box to continue typing. Is there anything that will block these ads in Firefox. The do not seem to happen when I switch to Edge or Chrome. I just would rather ruse Firefox.
