  • Reproduces regardless of the status of ETP
  • Reproduces in firefox-nightly, and firefox-release
  • Does not reproduce in chrome

Created from https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/211337

Since nightly and release are affected, beta will likely be affected too.

The server is sending a zero-byte 404 response. Chrome does show a nice error message in that case, we do not. This feels more like a Product feature request.
