Firefox: Does not show anything when visiting either Google or Facebook #7

Similar to that 1 star review: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/re-consent/reviews/

I have uBlock, uMatrix and NoScript installed, and I tried disabling the first two from themselves, and the later from Add-Ons page with no visible effect.

Firefox tracking protection is enabled.

Firefox 62.0.2 Windows x64

The dialog will trigger in the following situations:

On a Google site when you are logged into your Google account.
On facebook.com when you are logged in.
On a site using the IAB framework - e.g. sourceforge.net

I believe the first two may not work properly if you have first party isolation enabled in Firefox.

Is there a setting? I don't have the add-on installed.

sammacbeth commented 5 years ago

First-party isolation requires you to change an internal setting to enable (from about:config). I guess you don't have it enabled in this case.

On a site using the IAB framework - e.g. sourceforge.net

I don't get the icon in the address bar at either of these pages:

– it's present, but greyed out in the page actions menu:

Firefox 75.0, FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Tracking protection set to strict, does this negate the effect of re:consent?

sammacbeth commented 4 years ago

It is possible that the IAB framework does not work correctly when certain third-parties are blocked on the page, preventing re:consent from getting consent information.
