I want to turn off 'Do not track' on Firefox and I only see how to turn it 'on' help topics.

I don't think you need to turn it off:

Starting in Firefox version 135, the “Do Not Track” setting has been removed. Many sites do not respect this indication of a person's privacy preferences and, in some cases, it can reduce privacy.

See: How do I turn on the Do Not Track feature?

Thanks jscher for your reply,

I know it's being ignored by most sites, but I'm being prevented from seeing data I need to access due to 'Do Not Track' being 'On'. So yeah, need to turn if off..

As stated, Firefox does not send "Do Not Track" request starting from version 135. It makes use of Global Privacy Control (GPC) instead. Please see this article for details.
