Firefox shows a security warning popup ("sensitive data sent over http") when clicking on http links having parameters (i.e. http://www.mydomain.com/?param=value) from an https page.

Why Chrome, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge does not complain/show this security warning popup?

As far as I understand, links with parameters should not necessarily be considered as "sending data". I didn't find any documentation in google about this issue. Is this a known bug in Firefox?

Hi, not sure, anymore to that error message ?

One issue that seems more common lately is Firefox's Tracking Protection feature. When it is blocking content in a page, a shield icon will appear at the left end of the address bar next to the padlock icon. This article has more info on managing this feature: Tracking Protection *https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tracking-protection
