Comment (by Thorin): The white element is YT using a canvas element, which RFP renders white - https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js/issues/924 - https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/fy6l1z/youtube_borked_with_new_firefox/fmytbrw/ - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1628947 Obviously one solution, is to allow canvas on YT: but that defeats the purpose - and it wouldn't surprise me that the reason for doing this is to force users to remove privacy protections. The fact that canvas RFP protection is easily detectable can be used against users Another solution is to play whack-a-mole with JS/elements: and that's not a long term solution either Tom's ticket on poisoning canvas is probably the ultimate answer - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621433 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33874#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
