I frequently attempt to open news articles or other pages requiring form fill-in but instead get a page that advises me to disable an adblocker. I have no idea what Firefox (yes, up-to-date) uses or how I could set it to allow pop-ups for a particular site. Help!

Try disabling Tracking Protection for the site.

Does it still happen in Troubleshoot Mode?

TyDraniu - not exactly reproducible except to visit this site: National Review.com A page comes up that says "Something went wrong. Please disable your blocker on National Review." zeroKnight - I did disable Tracking Protection. Still no luck. cor-el - that was my first effort. I modified the blocker settings on Mozilla. It didn't help.

National Review does not detect an ad blocker for me, even with uBlock Origin.

You may need to clear site cookies after disabling Tracking Protection or disabling your extensions for it to take effect.

You could have filtering at the network level, try changing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) to "Off" or "Max Protection" and in Connection Settings change "Use system proxy settings" to "No proxy".
