WHY IS THERE AN AD FOR A TV SHOW IN MY BROWSER INSTALLED WITHOUT MY CONSENT? While MR. Robot may be an excellent TV Drama, I do not need ads for it within my browser, I don't care how cute it is.

Re-write your post - take out the language. This is a public forum. Do not use all caps as you know that is shouting and is considered rude.

It's rude of the developers to force an addon to be installed that does not enhance the user experience.

Since you say it is a addon forced on you could you tell me about it please, as you have send info to Mozilla turned off within Firefox. So I have no info to work with other than what you tell me. So far, I need much much more information to even begin to help.
