Re: [outages] OT: Weird problem with Firefox & G+

Following up on this... It appears AdBlock Plus is the culprit here: https://plus.google.com/116028828272319130998/posts/doopZKh1G3u So either adding an exception for plus.google.com or simply disabling for that specific property "fixes" the problem.

Pardon the off-topic post, but...
For some bizarre reason, Google+ started giving me an "invisible" page after logging in this morning. It starts off fine, but then after pulling content from ssl.gstatic.com and *.googleusercontent.com, etc., it then goes "invisible".
This is with Firefox 24.0 -- I have, one by one, unloaded and restarted Firefox with various plugins disabled (e.g. NoScript, HTTPS Everywhere, etc.) and the problem persists.
There *is* content there, it is just "invisible" (e.g. body { visibility: hidden; })
...and seems to work fine in IE (not my browser of choice).
Just curious if anyone else running Firefox 24.0 has run into this problem today on G+, or if Google made some sort of "enhancement" which manifests itself this way.
All other Google property pages work fine, just G+ has exhibited this behavior today.
Thanks,

Appropriately enough, that url shows up as a blank page in my browser. ^_^; Seems like the author might have done well to post the fix to somewhere *other* than the site having the problem to begin with. :D Matt
