Referer Header is removed from the HTTP GET requests which I made through my add on. Tried updating the referer settings but no luck. Attached the modified settings. All other settings are default.

Note: Using Latest FF. Version - 94.0.2 (64-bit)

You are generating completely new requests, or modifying requests generated from the page?

Either way, I suggest posting this problem on the Add-on Development Forum over here:
