user.js | Firefox, Firefox ESR and Firefox Nightly.

This a is a fork of the arkenfox project.

The user.js file is for configuring and hardening Firefox privacy.-

Goals

• enhance privacy
• improve performance
• better fingerprint possible
• reduce automatic connections to the minimum posible

Considerations

This user.js is a fork from the arkenfox project with a substantial divergence. It tries to avoid all the automatic connections even though security could be reduced slightly. For instance, OSCP is a privacy breach. Nevertheless, it is also a security feature. This user.js disables them as well as safebrowsing, automatic addons connections and so on. You will have to check manually addons updates in the related preferences section.

However, 2 connections could not be blocked anymore:

• firefox.settings.services.mozilla.com
• content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net

So you'll have to add them to the host list of your OS.
