Why is Firefox being managed 'by my organization' when it is not part of an organization?

I can't reach certain websites or get downloads because Firefox is being managed by my organization... I am not part of an organization; I am an individual!

Hi, this is usually caused by security software, in your case Avast Antivirus, that wants to monitor your internet traffic and needs to inject its root certificate (security.enterprise_roots.enabled: TRUE) in Firefox to prevent SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER issues.
