### Standard Tracking Protection
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Most problems stem from Firefox running in [Strict mode](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop#w_strict-enhanced-tracking-protection). Switch back to [Standard protection](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop#w_standard-enhanced-tracking-protection) to fix them.
Most problems stem from Firefox running in [Strict mode](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop#w_strict-enhanced-tracking-protection). Switch back to [Standard protection](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enhanced-tracking-protection-firefox-desktop#w_standard-enhanced-tracking-protection) to fix them.
```javascript
// PREF: revert back to Standard ETP
user_pref("browser.contentblocking.category", "standard");
```
Alternatively, you can adjust how aggressive Strict ETP is. You can change one or both prefs:
* `lvl2` to `-lvl2` to use a less aggressive [Disconnect](https://disconnect.me/trackerprotection) tracking protection ([lvl 1 list)](https://github.com/mozilla-services/shavar-prod-lists/blob/master/disconnect-blacklist.json))
* `fpp` to `-fpp` to disable [additional fingerprinting protection](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-protection-against-fingerprinting#w_suspected-fingerprinters) in Normal Browsing windows
Example: In the string below, I've disabled the `lvl2` tracking list but left Mozilla's newer fingerprinting protection enabled. But if you add a `-` to `fpp`, it will disable the protection in Normal Browsing windows. `-fppPrivate` to also disables it in Private Browsing windows, but I don't recommend that.
```javascript
// PREF: make Strict ETP less aggressive
user_pref("browser.contentblocking.features.strict", "tp,tpPrivate,cookieBehavior5,cookieBehaviorPBM5,cm,fp,stp,emailTP,emailTPPrivate,-lvl2,rp,rpTop,ocsp,qps,qpsPBM,fpp,fppPrivate,3pcd,btp");
```
This should solve most issues when using Strict ETP. These alterations shouldn't be an issue if you're using uBlock Origin.
