firefox is reading my emails and blocking me from accessing email

I can no longer access my GMX email account. Firefox is blocking me, stating:

"Blocked by Content Security Policy. This page has a content security policy that prevents it from being loaded in this way. Firefox prevented this page from loading in this way because the page has a content security policy that disallows it."

I can access my email via other browers. Other people can access their GMX email via Firefox on this PC.

This says that Firefox is reading my emails, and is determining whether what is contained in them is acceptable to be accessed and read, or not. And, based on whatever arbitrary Big Brother algorithm they have in place, any criticism of Angela Merkel's handling of the migrant crisis in Europe appears to be against Firefox's "security content policy".

So, for the avoidance of doubt, do NOT say ANYTHING that goes against the U.S. State propaganda otherwise the mighty ban hammer of your friendly Firefox browser will stop you dead on your tracks. Free speech? Freedom of thought? Oh HELL NO! Not with Firefox!

Content security policy has nothing to do with the content of the site you are trying to access, it means the site told firefox that if it can;t be loaded securely to not load it, and firefox can't load it securely.

Try checking your date and time, and a refresh, Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings

there are similar reports by other gmx.com users at the moment - the site in question is responsible for setting their own CSP, so they seem to have gotten something mixed up. please try to get in contact with their technical support team, since they are the only ones able to resolve such an issue.
