User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0

Steps to reproduce:

$ apt-cache policy firefox

user agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0

1. make a index.html:
   <script>var mywebsocket =new WebSocket(ws://127.0.0.1:6081);</script>
   2.visit index.html from firefox 98

Actual results:

firefox console log show:

Hi Reporter,

Are you still able to reproduce this?
If yes, could you try to record a http log?
