Is uMatrix on the whitelist of extensions that are allowed on the mobile version of Firefox? Some good number of releases ago, Mozilla completely redid the mobile version of Firefox, and in the process dropped support for most of the extension base - as in, they restricted the allowed extensions to only those in a defined list, and started that list out with a grand total of *nine* items. (See [1] for some at-the-time commentary on this.) I understand that in the time since then they've gradually expanded the list of allowed extensions, but at nothing like a rapid pace, and with no sign that they even intend to ever let the broad scope of extensions be installable (much less usable) for mobile-device Firefox again. It's always possible that uMatrix is one of the whitelisted extensions, but I wouldn't be even slightly surprised if it weren't.
