Every time I open Firefox, and every time I click on a link in a Windows application that opens an internet link (with FF as default browser), even if FF is already open and running, I get the "this program needs your permission to make changes to your computer". How can I fix this glaring error? Mozilla no longer supports FF and I can't find anything about this on the Forum. I don't want to switch to a different browser, but I will if I need to. Please help.

I’m using Firefox to access different websites that provide online calculators and tools. Some of these tools ask for my location or use my city to calculate a result.

I’m not sure how Firefox handles this information. Does Firefox allow websites to access my location, and will it always ask for my permission first? Also, can I check or change which websites are allowed to use my location?

I’d like to understand how this works before allowing a website to use my location.

I was supposed to have a telehealth appointment with my doctor today. When I clicked on the link, I was asked to give permission to access video and mic on my phone. When I said yes, I was then asked if Firefox could record the conversation. When I said, "no" the program just looped back to the initial question, and the screenshot ability was disabled on my phone.

I subsequently spoke with my doctor and he was not OK with being recorded, neither am I. I believe this is a violation of HIPAA. Please address this issue. Even your search assistant says this is potentional violation.

Search Assist Yes, it can be a violation of HIPAA if a website requires permission to record a conversation with your doctor without proper consent from both parties, as HIPAA prioritizes patient privacy and confidentiality. Always ensure that consent is obtained in accordance with state laws and ethical guidelines. HIPAA Exams

On my MacBook my microphone does not work in online meetings, initially it was the same issue as described in this bug report https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1896938 and killing the coreaudiod service worked but was a constant blocker so I switched to Zen in the interim and stopped using the built in microphone on the MacBook.

On attempting to switch back to firefox again (v 156.0) the microphone seems to be completely non-operational now not just extremely low volume and this happens in Google Meet and Microsoft Teams (those are the only ones I use).

In the OSX taskbar the microphone icon indicating the mic is in use seems to be constantly enabled/disalbed I recorded a video but can only upload images so I included images of it on and off it is switching between these states multiple times a second.
