  2. To add on what Philipp has shared, it's also important to note that Firefox ESR 128 has reached end-of-life and users on that channel will now be automatically updated to the ESR 140 release.

  3. Just a quick note to say that I have noticed that we are seeing multiple questions where users cannot access big name websites. Something does not feel right about so many questions on the same topic, so I have raised with engineers to look into.

    News to follow when I have it.

  4. I have been asked to get some additional information from users sent straight through staff - that is currently in progress.

  5. Thanks Paul. Do you have any example questions I can check out? Always curious when I hear big name websites failing to work in Firefox. Probably another VPN or AV gone wild again. *sigh*
