Certain Firefox users may come across a message in the extensions panel indicating that their add-ons are not allowed on the site currently open. We have introduced a new back-end feature to only allow some extensions monitored by Mozilla to run on specific websites for various reasons, including security concerns.

What is this bullshit? Feel like this will lead to adblocks being blocked for certain websites under the guise of "security", aka: we don't have to justify shit to you.

To disable "quarantined domains" if you have to : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quarantined-domains

1st thing to do on every release from now on.

This is a step too far for me. My device, my choice of browser and I am adult enough to make my own decisions.

Oh come on, it's still a free and open source browser. As seen in the other comments, it's a badly worded security feature for firefox internal pages and mozilla pages.

It's not going to kill adblock, it won't send your data everywhere and it can be disabled through an option as well as by simply building firefox yourself.

Everybody should stop being so negative towards open source developers.
