          Why so many tabs

            Because I just close Firefox and move on to another app, I don’t see tabs like on the desktop version and they don’t close when the app closes, so they stay open perpetually until I close them manually.

              Why don’t you just set Firefox to close tabs and wipe data on quit. That’s what I do

                Since when does FF on Android have “Close All Tabs on Quit”?

          I have it set up to close any tabs that are 2 weeks old.

            Why don’t you just close them immediately?

              Because that’s an extra step. Also, I might need it again in the next 2 weeks.

                Can’t you just reopen them?

                  Sure, if I do the same search and click on the same link again. Or I could type “lasa” and tap the button to switch to the tab with the lasagne recipe I have open.

                  Finding them again may be a hard task.

                  I keep tabs open because I hope to finish reading them, sometimes I even do

      I’m guessing you’re not logged in. The landing page works, but the members area, where the full ratings are, will show the above screen when I’m on VPN.

          Interesting. I know sometimes certain VPNs work with Netflix while others get flagged as VPNs. I wonder if your provider just has some fresh IPs that haven’t been added to whatever block lists these companies use.

        You might be using an endpoint that people have used for attacks recently. I think all of the website protection tools have some sort of temporary IP blocking mechanism.
