1) I run Firefox Quantum that disallows JavaScript so I cannot participate in the Facebook survey.

2) Why survey with JavaScript if Mozilla does not approve it?

3) There are other so-called secure sites that still persist in using JavaScript.

Hi,

In Firefox JavaScript is enabled by default.

But your system details show that you have NoScript and Ghostery installed - would you check the settings, or disable them while your filling in the survey  ? One (or both) of them might be the culprit here ......

Could it be that you're confusing Java with JavaScript  ? Would be very understandable ......
