I used the scan QR code feature with Camera permissions set to ask every time. I think I accidentally pressed no once. Now, Firefox asks to go to permissions and grant camera access, although the Camera permission is still available in settings.

This is not a critical issue. It works will full Camera permissions.

Good morning - I wanted to set up two-factor authentication with your browser for security reasons. A code comes up that one uses with one's phone. I connected with it, but I couldn't finish setting up the 2FA. Here's the problem: My Samsung Note 20 Ultra has fingerprint scanning on the screen. Since I bought it, I tried using the fingerprint feature, but it is a beast to get my prints scanned and then it can hardly ever scan my print successfully. So I gave up using fingerprints altogether. So I scan your code, and it wants me to do the whole fingerprinting thing with my phone in order to set it up. It doesn't give me the option to use the security that I did choose to use with my phone. Please advise how I can get 2FA without doing all of this. Thanks. Ritva

I had an Amazon tablet stolen from me a couple weeks ago. A few days after it was stolen, I had Amazon lock the tablet, but I know that they had access at least to my Google and Amazon accounts which were logged in on the device.

It only recently occurred to me that all of my passwords are saved in Firefox. Would they have been able to open Firefox and view all of my passwords? Would they have been able to go to websites and after the password auto filled, click show password?

Are all of my passwords compromised? And do I need to start changing all of my passwords?

Dear Firefox Team,

I am writing to express my frustration with the practice of page-force blocking that is implemented by your browser in China. As a user, I have noticed that when a website is blocked by Firefox China, it only serves as an annoyance rather than actually solving the problem.

I have a few questions regarding this practice. Firstly, how does the idea of blocking websites by the browser to prevent users from accessing a website that China government doesn’t like actually work? Users can always switch browsers or use other technology if they want to access a website, so what is the point of implementing such a feature?

Moreover, I fail to understand why Firefox would choose to increase user annoyance by page-force blocking that user can’t turn off instead of solving the problem at hand. It seems that this approach only exacerbates the issue and causes more frustration for users.

In conclusion, I would like to request that the Firefox headquarter team reconsider their current approach towards blocking websites in China. Instead of page-force blocking, perhaps there are alternative solutions that could be explored to better address the issue at hand.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely, HZ

As I was changing my password I believe someone else who is already hacked into my device, changed it before I could get it typed in completely. I know what I changed it to or was going to change it to but I received a notification before I completed typing it in. This is the reason I switched to the Firefox browser for the security that it has for it's accounts. Thank you in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Is there a way to remove specific websites from history on mobile phone? While searching with catchphrase "x" to remove specific position from history doesn't show up.

Clearing everything isn't helpful while scrolling down to just find some position from x-time ago is too time consuming.

I believe both Chrome and Opera mobile have those options.

Cheers

A scammer convinced me to allow access to the fraudulent site shelp.info despite the warning.

I've deleted the certificate of the site, cookies and stuff but now the website doesn't show the warning as potentially dangerous, which is what I want to have again.

I'm looking for the setting or allow list that may be enabling this so as to prevent it from happening again with other sites too.
