Prevent Firefox from saving addresses on specific website
As of Firefox v63, under Preferences > Privacy & Security > Forms & Passwords there is a button called "Saved Addresses..." which contains any name and address information that was previously entered into a form.
With this in mind, my question is if there is a way to prevent Firefox from automatically adding into Saved Addresses the names / addresses entered into a form from one or many websites while still saving addresses working on all other websites?
Also, I am aware there is a way to remove addresses from the Saved Addresses, what I am looking for is a way to prevent them from being added in the first place from one website.

Firefox typically asks you whether you want to save the entered information at the time you enter it. But you're looking for a web site "blacklisting" provision for anything that might be automatically saved? Have you verified that the current version is actually saving anything automatically?

At least from my experience, all addresses I have entered into forms are being automatically saved into the Saved Addresses listing without any prompt given beforehand.

I'm not aware of a native provision to blacklist saving with that kind of granularity, but I'm looking forward to any answers you might get to the contrary.
