Hi,

It's Google, not Firefox, verifying your session. By default, your IP address is always public when you browse the internet, unless you use a dedicated tool to hide it (VPN or proxy). Try the built-in VPN in Firefox if you already have access to it, Mozilla VPN or any third-party VPN/proxy you like.
