My home page is blank. My search engine is duckduck go.

I only have adblock and noscript.

I want firefox to not access google - ever. Right now it shows that it connects and maintains a connection permanently.

I find it infuritating actually.

f course not; it’s the distro that makes the call. But I want the Librewolf folks to make the effort to get accepted by the distro.

Hmm, I will try the LibreWolf - will also try disabling safe browsing.

Thanks for the info!

    Btw, disabling Safe Browsing didn't do the trick.

    I did download LibreWolf. I have bad news - it does exactly the same thing.

    Sigh. Maybe if you are using it you should profile it on osx or windows - or ntop linux I think will do it.
