Just recently I changed my privacy settings to take advantage of the privacy opt-out option for websites not to share my data or information. I went to my AMX credit card account and now every time I move to a new page the message, "Your Global Privacy Control opt-out signal has been honored" pops up and gets in the way of the information on the page. I am constantly having to click on the X in the corner to close the message box. Once would be enough for each main website. Having it pop up every time is absolutely annoying. I like having this option but if it's going to make me have to close the informational box every time I move to a new page or back to a former page, then I will have to undo the choice. The web designer who put this message text into the Firefox browser needs to find a way to only have it pop up once if they feel it is really necessary to tell me that they are blocking information from other companies. I really don't even need the first message just as long as it works behind the scenes. I hope someone gets web support to look into this issue. It's just so annoying.

Firefox for Mac, stop Apple's 2fa from popping up repeatedly in useless locations

[I am not sure this question is for Settings. None of the categories offered really seemed to fit this issue very well. Suggestions for re-posting are welcome.] On Firefox for Mac, Apple now has a pop up bubble to display the requested six digit 2FA number, first in the upper right corner, then, annoyingly, repeating often in multiple additional useless places on the screen, whether or not the code has already been used. The Apple community says there is no way to block this misbehavior through Apple, except disabling all 2FA, which is a bad idea. Is it possible to block the multiple appearances of 2fa code advisory bubble all over the place through Firefox controls? This problem reportedly does not appear on the native Mac Safari, nor reportedly on Chrome. I got to admit, I don't sign into Firefox, and not being forced to do so is a Firefox attraction for me. ]

unwanted popups

In a Firefox window, the left-most pane shows Homepage on top followed by a list of recent open websites. In my current window for example, below the home page heading I have Log in/Sign up/Mozilla Support then Get Support| Mozilla Support followed by +New Tab. There is nothing special about the particular configuration. I mention the exact configuration for orientation. My problem, for the example I am describing, is the existence of a popup that is in a separate bubble window that states Get Support|Mozilla Support on the first line and support.mozilla.org in the second. Popups like this one always appear. They are driving me crazy because they persist when some new window is moved over the Firefox window. That is, they always come to the front of a stack of windows. They often cover some clickable list in another application. I'm working with the latest MAC OS on a Macbook Pro. I have tried the usual advice to turn off popups in the FireFox settings. This toggle has no effect on these popup windows. Is there a way to turn them off!

All of a sudden the allow location permission window is popping up repeatably. I have the option turned off and every time I go to Amazon or Home Depot or any such place the window ops up requesting that location location tracing for the sites. I tried toggling the on/off for the option but it didn't stop it. Help!
