Hi all,

It’s a long time that I’m using Firefox as my main browser on my Linux (Pop_Os 22.04 Ubuntu based, Gnome) machine.

From about a week I’m having an annoying problem: with every Google search i do i get an annoying notification to grant access to my location , see here 👇 I get this popup notification every time i do a google search, also if i repeat the search in the same tab.

I had a look at the Gnome privacy settings with no luck.

I don’t know if it’s something related to Gnome not saving the preference or if it’s Firefox.

Anyone has any idea ?

Thanks 🙏🏻

    Normally Firefox itself should ask first if google is allowed to access your location. Maybe try find that setting in firefox and disable it. I would imagine if firefox itself blocks the request already, it isn’t even handed over to gnome. But that’s pure speculation.
