I did some research recently on some travel sites.

Today, while trying to research which tab was doing DNS queries to SnapChat (which I never use) I learned about `about:processes`. I found 5 "hidden" tabs from various travel sites (some of which I never visited) running in the background. I did not explicitly hide any tabs.

WHY IS IT ALLOWED FOR SITES TO KEEP OPEN HIDDEN TABS AT ALL WITHOUT TELLING ME ABOUT IT?

This is not conducive to trusting Mozilla.

On Windows 11 Pro, with the promotional McAfee app already uninstalled, the Firefox browser persistently presents what amounts to a Pop-up advertisement in the form of a fake new tab that remains in the background, unseen and left open even after one closes the browser session. How can this phenomenon be permanently terminated?

I was prompted to install a .js file while on a website unrelated to mozilla organization. I was taking a work call and distracted at the time and was dumb enough to install it before I realized this was not a normal update. Should I uninstall and reinstall firefox? My McAfee blocked the script from "trying to hijack one of [my] apps"

this is probably something basic but i'm stumped and frustrated. just now i'm trying to track a package on the post office site usps.com - each step i take firefox prevents me from moving forward - example: to track a package i insert the tracking number into the proper field and click enter. next up is a banner from firefox saying"firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page". i do the steps necessary to work around and track the package but it's annoying. this is just one example - its not limited to tracking packages or inserting long numbers into boxes - it happens - not often - but on occasion at certain other sites as well. while it may be the post office is inherently evil (i am not of that belief)i long ago accepted whatever they know about me is worth what they do for me on a regular basis - overall i consider my relationship with them as a win win. how do i convince firefox of the same? MSI notebook/laptop win 11, latest firefox updates although not a new issue - just particularly annoying today

i'd love to consign this to the category of "things that i don't think about any more" and move on to what's going to drive me crazy next - thanks for your help in my journey!

How do I ban permissions for all sites?

What happened to Firefox's permission's page? There's so few options now. I'm being harassed by websites to give them permission that should be blocked across the entire browser. I'm autistic and sensitive to popups/interruptions/distractions. So most permissions I simply had off for everything, because I don't want to be asked anything. I don't want to confirm anything. I don't want any popup of any type. So I turned everything off and it was good. (except blocking cookies of course)

But now sites are asking me again and there's no way to blanket turn off everything. I see I can press "Ctrl+i" to bring up specific permissions for that site, but that's not good enough. I specifically need permissions blocked for sites I've never visited. Needing to visit the site first completely defeats the purpose.

The permissions listed in the settings isn't all of them. How do I turn off ALL permissions for ALL sites. I can turn on specific permissions when I want them. Essentially, how do I recreate functionality that used to exist but was removed from us for whatever reason.

Also, it's a huge security hole! I'm a senior full stack developer. Asking permissions for a user is a great way to fingerprint them. If I accidentally hit "yes" to a few key permissions, I can be fingerprinted. Another reason I should be able to blanket ban these permissions. I just want my browser to be a browser. These permissions do nothing for me but make the experience worse.
