One thing I saw with firefox, it's in a SELKS dedicated machine that watch my network. The configuration is such that SELKS log also its own packets.
When I used firefox (esr IIRC) in the SELKS machine itself (it's installed by default) to monitor alerts & logs, I saw dns requests and packets sent to brands sites like Adidas, Amazon, Temu and so on.
I then installed chromium to do this job and never saw anymore these kinds of requests.
Is firefox-esr somewhat an adware?
