Hi all, I used to have pihole on an actual rasperry pi for a long time with no problems, and have recently switched to docker. However, a couple of weeks after doing so I noticed that there are now an excessive amount of requests to location.services.mozilla.com - nearly 86000 in the last 24 hours alone.

I have always used Firefox, but this seems like weird behaviour. I have Pihole set up as the DNS server in the router settings, but am not using the pihole as a DHCP server.

Let me know what logs to post, if any. Thanks.

    Pihole is reporting that it is letting those queries through, not blocking them.

      I just put FF nightly on my phone and my firewall (on phone) is blocking attempts about every 1 minute from
      location.services.Mozilla(.)com I am getting many more attempts from

      incoming.telemetry.Mozilla(.)org up to 3 per second perhaps that is listening for responses? I see no obvious way to change either of those in about:config

      Sorry I can’t be of more help
