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.

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.
