After recently updating FireFox to 94.0.1, I began to notice a privacy warning appearing, which quickly disappears. I managed to catch the moment and photograph the ~~Yeti~~ .

pierfrancescosoffriti.github.io has control of your pointer. Press Esc to take back control.

Screen

It seems that the appearance is associated with working with the Developer Tools (Dev Tools) - it appears, including when you hover the mouse over the tools tab. Appears on any sites, incl. on a blank new tab page.

Has anyone else noticed this? The developer, to whose github link , seems to be a reliable person, worked for Google, did something for YouTube there.
