I read at https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/certificate-issue-causing-ad...

>12:50 p.m. UTC / 03:50 a.m. PDT: We rolled-out a fix for release, beta and nightly users. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps.

>In order to be able to provide this fix on short notice, we are using the Studies system. You can check if you have studies enabled by going to Firefox Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Allow Firefox to install and run studies.

>You can disable studies again after your add-ons have been re-enabled.

>We are working on a general fix that doesn’t need to rely on this and will keep you updated.

I refuse to enable studies, even temporarily. This comes very close after the IE6 conspiracy revelation, where ends justifies the means.

Please provide a link to the certificate file, and step by step instructions for installing it, without enabling and conflating with mozilla studies...
