unintended tls handshake

Post by ajbg96r »

Dear All
I use Seamonkey 2.49.5 as my standard browser. Recently, I have realized that, when loading a page that’s completely unrelated to Facebook, I see the message “performing TLS handshake to Facebook”, in the lower left corner of the window. This is very annoying because at those moments I would not want Facebook to be aware of what am I doing, so I would like to remove it.
BTW, I’m not sure if this is a browser feature or the sites I visit, so I´m not blaming anyone.
After some searching, I tried:
1-Blocking 3rd party cookies
2-Using a new profile
Neither worked so far, so I would greatly appreciate any help

Use the uBlock extension to block it. I never see no Facebook TLS message.
