I find it incredibly disruptive every time this page comes up and it’s never completely capable of restoring my tabs. Is there any way to disable it so that it will instead update when I choose to restart Firefox?

    I think detectportal.firefox.com is used to detect if the current Wi-Fi connection requires the user to log in on a portal page, like the public Wi-Fi at airports or cafés. It redirects you to the log in page. Why would you block that?

      Yeah I think so but I didn’t care. I blocked them all since I don’t have a portal at my house. The point was to block their access to my machine. My trust is at all time low for most of these companies.
