*   "My mother was a tailor, she sewed my new blue pants"
* note: date, version, and code names only change for a github release, which will be shortly after
        each major Firefox stable release: https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js/releases
* authors: v52+ github | v51- www.ghacks.net
* url: https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js

* README:

  1. READ the full README at github
  2. READ the full README at github
  3. If you skipped steps 1 and 2 above (shame on you), then here is the absolute minimum
     * The settings below will turn off Tracking Protection, Safe Browsing and Auto Updates
       You need to read, understand, and decide about these. Don't leave yourself less secure
     * Site breakage WILL happen
         - There are often trade-offs and conflicts between Security vs Privacy vs Anti-Fingerprinting
           and these need to be balanced against Functionality & Convenience & Breakage
     * You will need to make a few changes to suit your own needs
         - Search this file for the "[SETUP]" tag to find SOME common items you could check
           before using to avoid unexpected surprises
         - Search this file for the "[WARNING]" tag to troubleshoot or prevent SOME common issues

  4. BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP your profile folder before implementing (and/or test in a new profile)
  5. Did you do a BACKUP?

/*** 0400: QUIET FOX [PART 2] [WARNING] [SETUP]
     This section has security & tracking protection implications vs privacy concerns vs effectiveness.
     These settings, WITH EXTENSIONS, are geared up to make Firefox "quiet", private and effective.
     We DO NOT advocate no protection, so use something with more scope, such as uBlock Origin.

     This entire section is rather contentious. Safebrowsing (SB) is designed to protect
     users from malicious sites. Tracking protection (TP) is designed to lessen the impact of third
     parties on websites to reduce tracking and to speed up your browsing experience. These are
     both very good features provided by Mozilla. They do rely on third parties: Google for
     safebrowsing and Disconnect for tracking protection (someone has to provide the information).
     Additionally, SSL Error Reporting helps makes the internet more secure for everyone.

     If you do not understand the ramifications of disabling SB and TP, then it is advised that
     you enable them by commenting out the preferences and saving the changes, and then in
     about:config find each entry and right-click and reset the preference's value.

/*** 2697: USER AGENT (UA) SPOOFING
     Spoofing your UA to *LOWER* entropy *does* *not* *work*. It may even cause site breakage
     depending on your values. Even if you spoof, like TBB (Tor Browser Bundle) does, as the
     latest ESR, it still *does* *not* *work*. There are two main reasons for this.
       1. Many of the components that make up your UA can be derived by other means. And when
          those values differ, you provide more bits and raise entropy. Examples of leaks include
          navigator objects, resource://URIs, <isindex> locale, feature detection and more.
       2. You are not in a controlled set of significant numbers, where the values are enforced
          by default. It works for TBB because for TBB, the spoofed values ARE their default.
     * We do not recommend UA spoofing yourself, leave it to privacy.resistFingerprinting (see 2699)
