What information is used to indicate that firefox is being used in an enterprise environment?
The Question refers to the Firefox built-in VPN being not available in enterprise environments. Background: My PC is being used strictly for private terms. System locale is German. OS is Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Firefox is version 150.0 The Windows installation is Domain joined. Firefox is being used with a domain-users windows account. When about:policies is being opened in Firefox the information is displayed "The Enterprise Policies service is inactive." The Firefox built-in VPN feature does not seem to be present in this installation of Firefox. No other VPN services are being used on that machine or in my network-environment.

It will not offer VPN if you have active policies or using ESR. See the enterprise note in the KB article
Enterprise note: This feature is not available in enterprise environments and is not being rolled out to users with enterprise policies. Organizations can use the BlockAboutConfig policy to prevent manual enablement of this and other unavailable features, and will have the ability to prevent enabling just this feature via a new IPProtectionAvailable policy in the 149.0.1 release on April 7th.

But what are the enterprise policies the KB article mentioned is referring to? In my understanding they cant be any of the Firefox-internal policies since my Firefox enterprise policies service is not active.
