Thank you for this, all of my add-ons were immediately re-enabled except for my selected theme.
Mozilla was warned beforehand about this, this problem was completely avoidable which is upsetting. I've been a fan of this browser for years but this is the 2nd time this has happened to add-ons that I can recall and to be blunt it's unacceptable.
It makes absolutely no sense that add-ons the user installs can be disabled like this without user consent, whether the add-ons in question are considered safe or not. Take into account how easy it is to migrate all of your bookmarks/etc. to another browser and this is clearly bad practice by Mozilla.
It's one thing if we had a way to bypass this through Firefox directly but they chose not to include a bypass for situations such as this. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the fact that this is affecting all add-ons, adblockers/dark mode/greasemonkey/everything.
"Date expiration on code signing cert should only prevent new signatures from being considered valid -- it should not even prevent installation of old software. The fact that an expired cert disabled software is the most retarded thing I've seen this decade on any web browser." <This quote nails it on the head, this whole situation is bull.
