€: It seems telemetry does no longer triggers the bug as they've changed something on the server side? So this probably won't help anymore.
- tpm 5y agothis worked for me too
- jml7c5 5y agoCan confirm this worked.
- mftb 5y agoI already had that disabled when it struck me.
- jacquesm 5y agoI had too but it mysteriously re-enabled on all FF instances on various laptops and desktops here. I wonder when that happened.
- jabiko 5y agoThe current theory is that some CDN/LoadBalancer updated its HTTP3 implementation and is now triggering a bug in the HTTP3 stack of Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1749908#c21 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1749908#c21 It just happens that the usage data collection uses that CDN thus triggering the bug. But you can also encounter it by just visiting any other website served by that CDN.
- duncanc4 5y agoThis worked. Funny that this bug will cause people to turn off the opt-out data collection. No one is going to turn it back on after the issue is fixed.
- jacquesm 5y agoDon't worry, FF will do an automatic update to re-enable it. Again. Without your consent.
- mardifoufs 5y agoThey will turn it back on for you. I could swear I've had it turned off a few times already before, and I'm definitely sure I did it at least once yet here we are :). Telemetry in itself isn't the end of the world, but disregarding the settings your users chose is such a weird behavior coming from an organization that pretends to care about choice.
