Fire Fox (Mozella) browser appears to be censuring content? In Fire Fox, when I read Fox Digital, I cannot see the comments any more when I’m signed in nor, signed in or not, the display boxes containing X posts and links. In the Federalist articles I can get the comments when I’m signed in, but the X content in them are not displayed. Comments in Yahoo are missing too. I tried changing Browser Privacy settings in Fire Fox, turning off my VPM, ad blockers, and tracker blockers but it does not correct the problem. All this content is available in Duck Duck Go and Edge browsers. Perhaps I have something I’m not aware of turned on but… Here’s two links to check out in Fire Fox then another browser.

Thanks TyDraniu, that was part of the solution. I also had to set “Browser Privacy” in settings to Standard. Maybe I need to play with the Custom setting. What a pain, I'd rather have protections on. I guess I’ll need to learn other browsers.

The Federalist still has a problem. All this content was working before with full protection. Shouldn’t this be listed as a bug for evaluation?

The only problem here is unless there is a user on here registered to those sites anyone going to the links won't be able to see what is happening since those require logins to post to know what is happening. So until a user here that is registered to those sites anyone else can see or know what is happening between Firefox and those site interactions.

Not sure I understand your point. The links to X are seeable and clickable to everyone, member of X or not, except when using Fire Fox. Even if you are not a member of X, you will be able to verify the X issue for yourself; just use the links provided in Fire Fox and another browser. Users who are logged to Fox Digital and Yahoo News can see and post comments, except when using Fire Fox. Choose a site to join, one is left, one is right, and you can see the comments issue when comparing the pages in Fire Fox and another bowser.

Being on that site, try to click the Shield icon in the address bar and turn off Enhanced tracking protection.
