I use Google for my search engine when using Firefox web browser. I've recently been getting a long list of ads / notifications in Google when I activate Google from Firefox. It does not interfere with the functioning of Google but I have no idea how this situation occurred. I am concerned about privacy and security. This does not happen when I use Chrome as my browser. I can access Google when I use Chrome as my search engine with no useless ads or notifications appearing in Google. Thank you Ken

Post a full browser screenshot of the issue. Need to see the entire browser window and not what's in it. Also provide steps to replicate your search so that we can try to replicate your issue. I use adblock plus and ghostery to block most ads.
