Details

Affected versions

  • Firefox 70.a01

Affected platforms

  • Windows 10 x64
  • Ubuntu 18.04 x64
  • macOS 10.13

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to Facebook.
  2. Click on the shield icon.
  3. Observe in which section the Social Media Trackers are placed.
  4. Turn off Tracking Protection.
  5. Repeat steps 2 and 3.

Expected result

    1. Social Media Trackers are in the "Blocked" section.
    1. Social Media Trackers are in the "Allowed" section.

Actual result

    1. Social Media Trackers are in the "None Detected" section.
    1. Social Media Trackers are in the "Allowed" section.

Regression range

  • I don't think this is a regression.

Additional notes

  • This bug is reproducing on multiple sites: Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram etc.
  • The list with the Social Media Trackers is populated, is not empty.

This is by design, we're only blocking third-party trackers. The on/off issue is covered by bug 1575811, I think.
