Facebook Container by Firefox
Review by Erin Palms
Rated 1 out of 5
by Erin Palms, 5 years agoActivating this add-on effectively locked me out of my facebook account. When I went to log in within the container it said my password was wrong and to change it. I did, using my email account to enter the code proving it was me. Then, because I have two-factor authentication, it required another code via the app on my phone. I do not have facebook on my phone. Therefore I cannot authenticate. So I DL'd FB on my phone and obviously can't log in there because my password was changed. I requested a text authentication code for my phone number that it registered to FB. Never received a text....so now I can no longer log in to facebook at all. Absolutely infuriating. The only other option is to submit a request to facebook with a photo of my ID. Not happening. I guess this really is a facebook container after all. Facebook is in the container and I'm out of it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Saint.77, 20 days agoOne of the essentials for privacy and anonymity on the web which cuts off facebook tracking from outside of facebook. I combine this with google container and twitter/x container. In addition you can use about:config privacy.firstparty.isolate = "true" or privacy.partition.network_state = "true" to isolate webpages from eachother.

- Rated 4 out of 5by grace46202, 2 months agoIf the container is accidentally deleted it can glitch out and does not re-create it by itself, requiring you to manually re-create a container to fix it. Otherwise this works great!
- Rated 5 out of 5by ninefoldrin, 2 months agoReally love this add-on. I appreciate anything keeping Facebook disconnected from myself.
As I don't know how else to potentially report a bug or anything like that, I'm also using this review to inform that there appears to be an issue with Etsy. When attempting to log into Etsy (with email login) it says there is an error until I try with Etsy allowed in Facebook Container. I'm not sure if this is something fixable or if Facebook has found a way to break Facebook Container. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19239252, 3 months agoLove the idea. Only gave 4 of 5 stars because of instead of just opening a new tab, it closes my original tab. SUPER ANNOYING to loose my search because I clicked on a FB or IG link. Fix this to just open a new tab automatically and i'll rate to 5 stars.

- Rated 1 out of 5by shino1, 4 months agoThis extension WILL completely break Threads website. I'm assuming it blocks access to some necessary Instagram stuff.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 19105114, 4 months agoNever downloaded the Extension. But I've always been perplexed why so many people issue 1 or two stars and NO review. Just sayin
