Public bug reported:
Happened as soon as Firefox was updated to 72.0.1. I noticed sites could
not determine my location.
Troubleshooting page shows "missing" under Location service key.
I have another computer running Lubuntu 18.04LTS, which I rarely use.
Just for fun, I booted it up and as soon as the software updater updated
Firefox to 72.0.1, location stopped working.
