Search feature blocked
When I try to do a search, regardless of what I type into the search, I get taken to:
moz-extension://91088c45-5f86-4c45-9bb7-6413ad25fe17/pages/consent/consent.html?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsearch.yahoo.com%2Fyhs%2Fsearch%3Fhspart%3Dtrp%26hsimp%3Dyhs-001%26grd%3D1%26type%3DY149_F163_202167_081020%26p%3D
I cannot figure out how to get past it. I am able to access my bookmarks, just not able to do new searches.
