Environment:
Operating system: Windows 10
Firefox version: Nightly 104.0a1 (2022-06-29)

Preconditions:
ETP set to STRICT
Clean profile

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-61972937
  2. Observe if the video below the menu is displayed

Expected Behavior:
The video is displayed on the page.

Actual Behavior:
The video is missing from the page, there's a BBC logo as a placeholder.

Notes:

  1. Screenshot provided
  2. Not reproducible on Nightly with Standard ETP
  3. Reproducible on both Standard and Strict ETP in a Private Window
Severity: -- → S3

This can be fixed by having our shim for iasPET provide callbacks with an argument which is a raw string "response" like this:

JSON.stringify({
    brandSafety: {},
    slots: {},
})
