I am running Linux Mint 19 and when I tried to activate the container extension some options were not selectable and a msg appeared at the top of my settings: "Your browser is being managed by your organization" I am a home user and never had anything to do with any corporate PC. The policy it lists is: disableappupdate true. Everything I see in the help database for this pblm pertains to Windows. As I said above I am running linux mint.

what is going on here???

So you are using a third-party package build of Firefox from Mint as this is their doing. The updates are done in your updates manager in repositories on Mint. https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=4259

This article though claims Firefox cannot handle it own updates. The desktop Firefox web browser for Linux can handle its own internal updates, just only with the official builds from mozilla www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ and not builds you make yourself or package/snap builds.
