Hi :-)

What's the difference between Restricted Domains and Quarantined Domains?

Why are there 2 keys ( extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains and extensions.quarantinedDomains.list ), and why have they to be handled differently?

Under Mozilla Settings, there is a notification at the top of the page saying "Your browser is being managed by your organization." Upon clicking, it shows: "Policy Name: Certificates", "Policy Value: ImportEnterpriseRoots", "true".

I am familiar with this notification from using Mozilla on my work laptop, but this is now showing on my personal laptop. Can you clarify what this is? I don't want to grant my employer right to manage my browsing on personal laptop, if that is what is happening. Not sure if this is because I synced settings with my browser login on the work laptop or what...

I have tried everything. I've gone into the permissions, I have it set that everything is allowed. I reset and forgot the sites multiple times, zoom and Google Meets, and when I reload still the same issue. It says I do not have a camera. The camera works for both Edge and the camera app on my laptop. I even checked my settings on my laptop, and Firefox has permission to access my camera. However, in the camera request history, it does not show that Firefox asked for access to my camera. It also says the last time it accessed my camera was last year, but I have been trying to get it to work this entire time. I am updated with Windows 11 and the latest update of Firefox. How do I fix this? Is it an issue with Firefox or Windows?

Unmatching security certificate for sync.contextualadv.com - Antivirus warning

Hello.

Everytime I open a new Firefox window, I get this warning from my antivirus:



Suspicious connection blocked 8 minutes ago

Feature: Online Threat Prevention

firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to sync.contextualadv.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one.



Usually, when I see this happen, the company fixes the issue within a day or two, but this has been occurring since at least 4/9/2025. This warning occurs regardless of whether my browser is logged into it's Mozilla account or not.

Greetings,

Last week I started getting blocked from sites I normally access. Several are related to hunting. This is the message that comes up:

logo This site is blocked due to content filtering.

Site blocked. buckmasters.com is not allowed on this network as it may go against Christian values.

This site was blocked due to the following categories: Weapons

It says it is from Cisco Umbrella, which I don't know anything about. How can I remove it?

Thank you, Andrew Howell

If I select "Privacy & Security > History > Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings > Data > Site settings" what SQLite files affected when Firefox closes?

I suspect in the profile folder directly, there's a file called "storage.sqlite", but there seems to be more things affected because the whitelist for my cookies is also wiped-out.

In my experience (115.23.0.esr), when I request to remove site data when Firefox closes, it wipes out my cookie white list, so I want to manage that myself.
