Turn enhanced tracking protection totally off still does not work, you still have to manually turn off in URL area

I have been reading about turning off enhanced tracking protection permanently; HOWEVER, the solution does not work. Going to privacy and security, clicking custom and turning everything off still does not shut the thing off fully. The shield in the browser is still active and I constantly have to still turn it off I even had to turn it off to get on this site. That is pretty sad when the makers of the browser block their own site using enhanced tracking protection. Is this another case ( i've seen thousands) where some sortware nerd is trying to show how clever he /she is at coding and in fact messes everything up? WHY DO YOU SIMPLY REMOVE THE TRACKING PROTECTION ENTIRELY... IT'S SO ANNOYING.

btw: none of the enhancements like Bold or Italic work on this site either.. great job..../s

Is this actual Firefox passing my info to Meta, or some Meta scammer pretending to be Firefox?

On that date, I had Global Privacy Control turned on in Firefox.

Morning.....I subscribe to PennLive.com (part of the Patriot News group in PA) and have a paid subscription. For several years, there were no ads with a paid subscription. I also have set up on Firefox a custom anti-tracker which blocks cookies, ads and the like. it works on most sites. However, on Penn Live I am getting all sorts of ads jumping around many of which are just plain gross. Ads for belly and arm fat (with pictures), drinks for brain health etc. How do I fix this? What other protections do I need to add on Firefox? This needs to stop and contacting Penn Live has not made a difference. Thanks.

Good day everybody, I am new to Firefox. I have MacBookAir 11. I added the Ecosia extension since it's my main search engine. I noticed there aren't ads popping up for Ecosia. That is how Ecosia makes money for it's sustainability projects, so, as nice as it is to not see ads, I would like them to show up for my Ecosia searches. I understand you can make an Enhanced Tracking Protection exception (and I did), but where can I find a place to make exceptions for whatever AdBlock software came already integrated to Firefox? I am liking Firefox so far. Thank you everybody. Miran.

Enhanced Tracking Protection is breaking everything.

Enhanced Tracking Protection is stopping me from accessing many websites which, on other browsers including Firefox for Android, have nothing wrong with them - UK Met Office, forums, webcomics, Patreon... In many places, it's stopping me from connecting to the website altogether, or even logging into desktop app services when I have to use a browser link to log in; the login process simply doesn't resolve. I've tried disabling and removing extensions, changing settings, refreshing the browser and clearing the startup cache, but nothing seems to help. I cannot work out what's wrong, and I cannot disable Enhanced Tracking Protection. I'm having to send this message via TOR browser, because on Firefox, the Mozilla Support site is reduced to just text and links, with no frames or images, and barely navigable. This also means I can't pull Troubleshooting data direct from my Firefox browser for this form, because the form page's display is also broken on Firefox; I may be able to provide troubleshooting data on request, but I will require step-by-step guidance.

I don't know what to do, and I need help.

Twice now I have been redirected from GoCompare.com to an insurer’s site (LV.com) to pay for a quote and twice there has been a problem with the payment (according to LV) The payment is pending on my bank account but not showing on LV systems.

Could any browser settings be effecting this. I have standard (enhanced tracking protection) selected and duck duck go as search provider?

I posted my problem last week on the forum and was told to do a Control+Shift+K, which I did. It indicated that Fingerprinting was blocking the sonograms. I am nervous about unblocking this one feature of eBird and wonder if someone could investigate and walk me through fixing it without messing things up overall. Nobody answered my post. I'm including an image of the results of my discovery. Thank you.

How can I (we) disable enhanced tracking so it's not loaded at all in the browser, i.e., we manually turn it on and off when needed? After this last update, some websites I visit are automatically crashing, the screen freezes, I cannot click on their navigation or products, it's become a horrible nightmare and it's not a good use of my time. I want to disable it.

Enhanced Tracking Protection is preventing access to x.com even after it is allegedly "turned off" for this site. I have been using personal computers since the 1970s after the IBM PC was introduced, but now I am about ready to ditch Firefox AND Windows 11 to install a decent version of Linux. Grok on my iPhone 8 offered several suggestions to resolve this issue, but none of them have worked so far... including trying to us Microsoft Edge instead of Firefox.
