Hi. When I type in "wal", Firefox on Android suggests "walmart.com". When I type in "low", Firefox on Android suggests lowes.com . How can I disable this? This is NOT a search suggestion, which I disabled, nor a history/bookmarks suggestion. I am not from the US and would never use these sites. I haven't bookmarked them and I haven't visited them.

disabling browser.fixup.alternate.prefix didn't help.

Well that's slightly disappointing. Where can I get this answered, if not here?
