Google Searches on Windows Redirecting to Playstore
Whenever we use google on Firefox and search for anything it redirects to this "play.google.com/log?hasfast=true&authuser=0&format=json" There is only one extension and it is our webfilter that is blocking google play. What would cause all of our regular google searches to redirect to the playstore? The extension is up to date on the latest version and this happens on all computers in our domain.

When you use Google search, the page sends a sequence of those log requests in the background.
It would be better if these were blocked silently rather than affecting the user's experience of using Google Search. Maybe you can distinguish them in your code? The browser.webRequest.onHeadersReceived details object provide information on the request type.
You also could consider filtering through Enterprise Policy:
