1897357 - ETP breaking X.com (Twitter)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1897379

(Core :: Privacy: Anti-Tracking, defect)

Description

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0
Firefox for Android

Steps to reproduce:

Twitter recently started redirecting everyone to x.com , and is loading it's home page on x.com , instead of just acting as a redirecting service .

I believe Firefox doesn't block Twitter trackers/loaders on twitter.com, but does so on x.com . This could be breaking x.com

Actual results:

Opening twitter.com redirects to x.com . It then shows a message "Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com"

Disabling ETP fixes the issue

Expected results:

x.com should load normally

The bug has a release status flag that shows some version of Firefox is affected, thus it will be considered confirmed.
