Firefox users who run add-ons that are not monitored by Mozilla may notice a new notification in Firefox when they visit certain sites. The notification informs them that āsome extensions are not allowedā and were blocked from running on that site.
Mozilla writes on a support page: āAs of Firefox version 115, 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 concernsā.
Mozilla makes no mention of the scope of this and the support article is extremely vague. The change is called Quarantined Domains by Mozilla.
There is however a way of reverting this (for now?):
Load about:config in the Firefox address bar.
Click Accept the Risk and Continue, if the prompt appears.
It seems intrusive to me, like if I were a child that needed help about my plugins.
But I donāt have a complete understanding or formed opinion about it yetā¦
For the new feature? Blocking some addons on certain sites? No i havenāt. Iām going to run with it. I probably wonāt have any issues. I donāt go to that many sites and the sites i do go to are probably not the ones referred to.
Edit: I only use 3 add ons

In case youāve missed it, itās just how Rick rollsā¦
If things that he likes and has no problem with will throw h-bomb on his city - heāll still love it!
