I-Firefox Community Forum

Usually I login to my account on a public PC and when I finish my work, I log out and erase all data. From some build it doesn't fully erase the history, meaning it reloads my tabs when another person opens Firefox.

Why is the sessionstore.jsonlz4 generated from a private firefox window ? It is not private anymore if the session is stored in place of the regular session, which by the way happens not to be generated when the regular firefox window is closed while a private firefox window is still open. The private firefox window should have no effect on the regular session storage and should never be stored, all this is very confusing.

Hi 🙂

Many extensions don't work on support.mozilla.org.

For ex, Clippings and Unicodify – Text transformer are very useful to write text. It's annoying not to be able to use them to write in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/thunderbird/form.

Seeing https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/tyytcy/how_to_get_rid_of_this_extension_restriction/i3vke2p/,

1) Why is support.mozilla.org privileged and can pull out information about visitor's system, while connect.mozilla.org cannot?

2) I see that:

• Copy Link Text works,
• Unicodify – Text transformer is able to read selected text but not to write in forms,
• Clippings is not able to read selected text.

Is there a doc which explains what are the limits of what's allowed for extensions in "internal restricted sites"?

I thought the webcam was not working but in another browser like Google Chrome Internet Explorer, the webcam works in all other browsers.

If allowed camera site permissions but not save change in browser

You are saying that I have an account with HauteLook. It turns out to be an account with Nordstrom Rack. To the best of my knowledge, I don't have an account with them and it does not appear that they know about me. I wonder how you know about such an account? The same goes for Post Millennials.

Hello

What are the restricted sites in the Firefox extension details? What are the sites restricted by Mozilla, as referred to on the page https://support.mozilla.org/pl/kb/dlaczego-niektore-dodatki-nie-sa-dozwolne-na-stronach-ograniczonych-przez-mozille?as=u&utm_source=inproduct#firefox:win10:fx135 ?

I keep getting pop-ups in the right lower corner from "mozilla firefox" (not sure if they are legit). They will say: "zeus.2020 trojan detected" or "virus detected" or "system is infected", etc. All have "Mozilla Firefox" in the upper left of the pop-up, and "via rgfirewall.xyz" at the bottom. Is this truly legit, or is it just a nuisance? I've just been closing them with the x or dismiss buttons.

Witajcie

Co to są witryny z ograniczeniami, co to są strony ograniczone przez Mozillę, o czym mowa na stronie https://support.mozilla.org/pl/kb/dlaczego-niektore-dodatki-nie-sa-dozwolne-na-stronach-ograniczonych-przez-mozille?as=u&utm_source=inproduct#firefox:win10:fx135 ?

It seems to me that Firefox's DoH implementation is not just pointless but actually harmful. It is security theater. Let me explain:

• There is no fine-grained control
• There is no ability for the user to choose what level applies to what networks
• Default Protection provides no protection when there is a canary domain (trivial)
• Increased Protection provides no protection when the default provider fails (trivial)
• Max Protection requires manual intervention when the default provider fails
• Bonus: it's inconvenient or impossible to use on mobile

For DoH to be useful, the user has to invest effort they could better spend setting up a proper system-level solution.

I've seen cites that prove that Mozilla's latest policy updates (thanks for no notice) are now positioning Firefox to sell our data for both ad targeting and AI training purposes. I oppose both, and have no use for Firefox if it joins those already disrespecting and monetizing user privacy in those regards. How do I a) ensure I'm getting the plain language notices of further policy updates, and b) register my dismay with Firefox for this betrayal? While you're coming up with an answer, I'll be discontinuing my monthly support for the Mozilla Foundation. I have HAD IT with the greed people ruining everything.

I received an email from breach-alerts@mozilla.com and wanted to know if this is from Mozilla or a scam.

It said it was from Mozilla Monitor and that I was part of a breach

Mozilla Monitor⁩ discovered the following data breach that includes your personal information:

Breach source:

   Orange Romania

Your exposed data:

   Email addresses, Partial credit card data, and Phone numbers

We’ll guide you step-by-step on how to resolve this data breach.

The urls in the email started with https://blrv1ly5.r.us-west-2.awstrack.me, for example:

https://blrv1ly5.r.us-west-2.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fmonitor.mozilla.org%2Fuser%2Fdashboard%2Faction-needed%2F%3Futm_source=monitor-product%26utm_medium=product-email%26utm_campaign=breach-alert-free-us-no-scan%26utm_content=lets-get-started-us/1/010101954707497e-60e09c39-3a6c-4790-9ec8-1e6c480be653-000000/vhuplzy93ytOGWRRt1XRPcDqVKM=416

places.sqlite: this file records EVERY website I've ever visited in a db table! This despite opting out of History and flushing daily It's frustrating that FF surreptiously collects such personal info. Why record every site I visit, date-timestamps, frequency, etc.?

moz_historyvisits_dateindex ON moz_historyvisits (visit_date) moz_places_lastvisitdateindex

As test, I changed the name to places-sqlite.old to see if FF will create a new one It didn't make a new table; re-created the old one.

I need to update FF because of the expired certificates, but would like to clear these out first. Similarly, can I get rid of the icon database? My bookmarks are backed up as JSON and HTML files. I just wished they didn't contain extraneous info
