What's the deal with the addons?
Okay, I understand the need for security. I completely understand that you want people to be verified and not introduce malware to systems. I get it, but not giving people the option to say "Go ahead, I'll take the risk." Is just asinine. I know I'm not the only one pissed off at this. My main problem is that you've now disabled my ad blocker and tracking cookie blocker without my permission. Or is that your intention? I pray that it is not, but if this cannot be resolved, I will have to switch to chrome.

Mozilla has rolled-out a fix for this. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps. In order to be able to provide this fix on short notice, they are using the Studies system. You can check if you have studies enabled
Go to [=] > Options > Privacy & Security. Make sure Allow Firefox to install and run studies is check marked.
I you had it disabled, you can disable studies again after your add-ons have been re-enabled. They are working on a general fix that doesn't need to rely on this and will keep you updated.Read this answer in context 👍 0
