Hello, Installing the addon breaks adsbexchange for me. I get a Problem fetching data from the server: 403 on my computer and my phone.

Computer: Ubuntu 24.04 | Firefox 130.0 (64-bit) Flatpak Phone: PureOS byzantium | Firefox 115.15.Oesr (64-bit) normal apt install I2P in Private Browsing Mode version: 2.6.0

Is also breaks live streams on https://odysee.com

It also breaks online payments... I am unable to pay by card online after installing the addon.

Thanks for the report. I'm sure the addon is the only thing that has changed, but I need help reproducing the behavior.

Re: on your phone: I am confused how you managed to get it installed on your phone at all. The API's and manifest keys used in this plugin are not available in the Android version. I have to work pretty hard to even get it to a state where I can test the availability of the API's in Firefox mobile. I'm pretty sure it can't be my fault on your phone.

Re: on your desktop: The addon enables the limited privacy features enabled by the Mozilla webextensions API, some of which are by necessity enabled browser-wide, including resistFingerprinting, disabling third-party cookies, etc. My hypothesis is that one of these is the culprit. I don't use either of these services, so I'll have to find a way to test them. Odysee is simple enough to test. Dunno about adsbexchange.

Thank you for your time sir. I should have mentioned I have a Linux phone. It was confusing at first, as I only installed the add-on on my computer. But I see now that I am logged in with the same account on both devices. and Firefox installs add-ons on all the browsers you are logged into. I'm not bothered that much. I mean, 99% of the internet works with the add-on. What makes things difficult is that, you have an option in Firefox for add-ons called "Run in Private Windows" "Allow" or "Don't Allow". I have it on "Don't Allow" so that if I need to use something that does not work with the add-on I do it in a Private Window. Problem is, even in Private Windows, with the add-on not running, the websites are still broken, I have to completely delete the add-on, do my work, and then install it again. P.S. I am not particularly intelligent, but I can for sure help with testing :3

I believe you and #143 have been experiencing related issues. Please stand by for the next release to test if both issues are fixed.

Whooo! Version 2.7.0 fixed online payments and livestreams on Odysee. Adsbexcange is still a bit funky but the Problem fetching data from the server: 403 error is gone, I will go bug the website owner about the problem. Thank you so much for the fix, it means a lot to me ❤️

[ADDENDUM] Turns out adsbexchange was not working because the addon breaks WebGL a bit. But, you can visit the no OpenGL version of the website: https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?nowebgl

Thanks, that's important information to have.
