With Focus privacy settings what is the difference between block cross-site cookies and block 3rd party cookies only? It isn't clear because Mozilla defines these as the same here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/third-party-cookies-firefox-tracking-protection. So what is the different setting?

This seems to be a part of the Tracking protection which is Google's upstream code and linked to a criminal espionage bug of Google's. The code enabling this upstream criminal espionage bug is referenced by Mozilla as the Polaris project. Google was a little careful to not reject my reports of this criminal espionage bug as (intended) but plays incompetent and rejects the bug as (won't fix can't reproduce) although I have reproduced the bug in full documentation multiple times on multiple devices. My report is here https://github.com/users/freedom-foundation/projects/2

By catching these grubie pests this has been happening for over 2or 3 years now. Absolutely has destroyed my online experience. I have no confidence in any technology providers what so ever. Turns out to probably be the best way to eliminate anonymously and permanently internet pests.

I'm using a MAC and I'm using macOS Sequoia 15.0 (I just updated to this version) and I noticed that some our websites are not loading in your browser anymore. I thought this was a cache issue so I clear the cache and the the websites will only load with the Safari browser. We use Brave and DuckDuckGo for our search engines and we use Yahoo (Bing) when we search on Safari.

I have added (as a start) some web shortcuts to my Firefox Focus home screen. However, they are cut off, so I can only see the top part of the label. I can work out what they are but what happens when I add more shortcuts? How can I see the whole shortcut and label, please? I'm using Android version 14.

Not sure whether this is related to an update on apple iOS 17.6.1 or Firefox focus. At one point it worked, then last update on both ends I'll say for now this problem reoccured again.

I use an apple iPad 11 Pro with Magic Keyboard. If i wanna type in the URL bar it simply doesnt allow for the curser to be placed in that area, however, if I detach the iPad from the Magic Keyboard the function returns and now I'm able to place curser in url bar and being typing an address.


Prior to this problem reoccurring once more with one of the updates, it was fine for a couple of months (perhaps from may till august - best guess but I have no idea), but before may (lets say) I also dealt with the same exact problem for over a year or more.

Thank you, G

P.S. I apologize for my non-technical vocabulary as I am not versed well in this field.
