Overview

Purpose

Tracking Protection information is revealed through the same doorhanger as mixed content blocking. Both types of protection involve blocking network loads that match certain criteria. Once Tracking Protection is activated, you will see a shield whenever Firefox is blocking either tracking domains or mixed content. You may choose to disable Tracking Protection for a particular site by clicking on the doorhanger and selecting "Disable protection". Once Tracking Protection is disabled for a site, you will see a shield with a red strike-through. You may choose to re-enable Tracking Protection for the site by clicking the doorhanger and selecting "Enable protection".

The purpose of this wiki is to serve as a general test plan for verifying that tracking protection has a tri-state pref: enabled both in normal and private browsing, disabled everywhere and enabled only in private browsing; the last choice is the default one.
