    Latest Firefox update disabled Adblockers

    Latest Firefox update disabled Adblockers and other adons. What gives? I can't even download any other ad ons from Mozilla like Ublock. Any suggestions?

    Its a certificate issue. Give them a day or two to resolve the problem.

      Correct. Additionally, if you go to download anything new or "find a replacement" it tells you you have an internet connection fail. More on it here which explains it rather well:

      Some Firefox users started to notice that installed browser extensions were all disabled in the web browser suddenly.

      If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

        This one got me too. Working now again. If nothing else, it made me appreciate how many ads it was blocking, especially on YouTube.

          Hopefully it gets fixed soon. "Lastpass" is almost on a "need" basis for my browser, haha.

              Firefox disabled all my add-ons, but when I went to reinstall a password library they all started working again.

                  New tab Override, and Dark reader are the only 2 I use and they do the same, sometimes... it always gets fixed.

                    Wow! You Calgunners are the greatest. I never thought of posting the problem w/firefox here. I shoulda known.

                    I am running Safari/Mac but always switch to Firefox for Calguns and disable ad broker. Yesterday FF deleted Ad Blocker And Ghostery. grrrrrrrrr. What do I do now? Ghostery seemed to do a good job with trackers??????

                    At this point-firefox is persona non grata. Fact: I am on Safari 12.1 now.

                        Go into Firefox->options-> Privacy and security and enable studies. Mozilla will push out an update this way that will restore all your stuff. I did it yesterday and everythings back now. Just know it may take a few hours or so to update.
