Public bug reported:
Using Ubuntu 16.04. Firefox Version 72.0.2. Both HULU and Google maps
now state that my location could not be determined. Location sharing
previously worked, so I assume that it is a bug. Mozilla Technical
Support believes that the problem resides in the Ubuntu repository
version of Firefox.
"That appears to be a problem with Firefox from the repositories that
doesn't seem to include the Mozilla Location Service Key and doesn't
offer an alternative. You can check that on the "Help -> Troubleshooting
Information" (about:support) page.
You will have to use Firefox from the Mozilla server. Note that current
is Firefox 73.0.1."
Hopefully, by updating the version of Firefox in the repository, this
problem will be fixed.
