Hello Patrick, thank you for the reaction.

Just shortly: Tails fresh install 3.16 or 4.0-beta TB don't have this
issue. Even it starts on "Standard" by default of course. Fresh
install of TBB on win7 doesn't have the issue. It seems to be
qubes-whonix (dont know how is ti in non-qubes-whonix) specific for
some reason.

I believe that if one sets the security setting to "Safest", she for
sure didn't meant to be tracked by entities like google, youtube,
microsoft, yahoo, paypal and others - the worst surveillance
capitalists on this planet.

Interesting is that the issue with the whitelist can be easily
"solved" just by clicking on the Standard security setting and than
again back to the Safest -> no "Trusted" websites anymore, zero. Can
you please check deeper on this issue? Thank you!

Weird ^^
