I noticed that websites in my main firefox profile began showing the time in UTC rather than following my timezone.

privacy.resistFingerprinting and privacy.resistFingerprinting.testing.setTZtoUTC are set to false

Other profiles follow my timezone, so I would imagine that this has something to do directly with my current firefox profile.

Thank you

You can see the current time and time zone if you paste this code in the command line of the Web Console (Web Developer -> Web Console; Ctrl+Shift+K).

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Web Developer or Tools -> Browser Tools -> Web Developer Tools

Paste each of these, one at the time, in the command line, you should see the result immediately without the need to press Enter. 

(new Date());
(new Date()).toString();
(new Date()).toLocaleString();

Helpful?

On my main profile, the first evaluates to the correct timezone, while the other two display as UTC, on my other profiles all three display the correct timezone. Do you know what might be causing this?
