Websites think I have an ad blocker running but I don't.

I've been a loyal Firefox user for as long as it's existed. I am not any longer using ad blockers but I'm often barred from visiting sites because they think I do have one. This is really irritating. How do I fix this? Thank you.

The Firefox Enhanced Tracking Protection feature can block content, just like content blocking extensions.

You can check for issues with Enhanced Tracking Protection. Firefox shows a purple shield instead of a gray shield at the left end of the location/address bar in case Enhanced Tracking Protection is blocking content.

  • click the shield icon for more detail and possibly disable the protection

You can check the Web Console for relevant-looking messages like blocked content.

If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (Adblock Plus, NoScript, DuckDuckGo PE, Disconnect, Ghostery, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin), always make sure such extensions do not block content.
