I have all Firefox Data Collection and Use options disabled.
Anyone know what all of these services are doing? I assume they're for auto updates, account sync, and maybe pushing Pocket ads and/or sponsored pins?
Likely, I'll block most, but curious if anyone knew.
Sounds like it's pretty standard, benign stuff. Luckily FF is open source, so if this freaks you out, then try one of the more private forks like LibreWolf. You won't see these same connections there.
Fresh install of LibreWolf and it's made a bunch of outbounds. Some seems related to it auto-installing uBlock. Others similar to default FF.
