My mobile phone contract has run out of its monthly data allowance. It appears from the usage page on the Pixel that on one day 5.6 GB were used through the Firefox app, orders of magnitude more than my normal usage.

1. How can I find out which ?tab used the data stream? 2, How can I prevent a re-occurance?

Thank you

Hi

Do you have any tabs open that are playing a video file?
