I believe the first issue is not relevant anymore, as mozilla revamped
the tracking protection feature in firefox 63 (which is now available in
all supported series): https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/10/23/latest-
firefox-rolls-out-enhanced-tracking-protection/
I am therefore going to reword the bug description to include only the
second issue. In the future please file separate bugs to track separate
issues, this will ease a lot bug management. And do not confirm your own
bugs, that should be done by someone else. Thanks!
** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => New
** Description changed:
Affecting Firefox 60 with Ubuntu 18.04.1: (Private Browsing)
- 1. Tracking Protection selector is consistently 'stuck' i.e. unable to
select/de-select every time Private Browsing is launched for the first time.
Problem seems to go away after every re-launching of a new Private Window.
- (Potential security vulnerability with Tracking Protection)
-
- 2. When closing down Private Browsing with 2 tabs or more, the 'warning'
+ When closing down Private Browsing with 2 tabs or more, the 'warning'
dialog box appears but if no selection is made after a while, the
'Gnome' dialog box appears behind it incorrectly indicating Firefox is
'unresponsive'. This causes the application to freeze as no selection
can then be made as the 'Gnome' dialog box's selection is hidden
(inactive window) behind Firefox's 'warning' dialog box (active window)
which has now frozen (...awaiting the 'Gnome' dialog box's selection
which cannot be made!)
Thank you for passing this on to the appropriate teams for action.
** Summary changed:
- Firefox 60 with Ubuntu 18.04.1 (Private Browsing)
