Bugzilla

I'm on macOS 14 and cannot repro.

To clarify how screen capture works, macOS 14 introduced a new OS-level icon in the top bar next to Firefox's own indicator. I see it [when sharing my screen](https://jan-ivar.github.io/dummy/gdm.html). However, that OS indicator should never appear alone (except during screen-sharing preview, and except for the 15 seconds extra it hangs around after Firefox's indicator disappears upon capture ending).

The OS-level indicator should NOT appear otherwise, or if the "Screen Recording" OS-level permission for Firefox is off (the fact that macOS allows "limited" capture without permission apps to self-capture and capture of a dummy desktop should not confuse this).

To the OP problem, to rule out some malicious extension, I'd recommend trying with a clean Firefox profile or restart in safe mode.
