* Some user data is erased on close (section 2800). Change this to suit your needs
* EACH RELEASE check:
- 4600s: reset prefs made redundant due to privacy.resistFingerprinting (RPF)
or enable them as an alternative to RFP or for ESR users
- 9999s: reset deprecated prefs in about:config or enable relevant section(s) for ESR
or enable them as an alternative to RFP (or some of them for ESR users)
- 9999s: reset deprecated prefs in about:config or enable the relevant section for ESR
* 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

/*** [SECTION 4600]: RFP ALTERNATIVES
* IF you DO use RFP (see 4500) then you DO NOT need these redundant prefs. In fact,
some even cause RFP to not behave as you would expect and alter your fingerprint.
Make sure they are RESET in about:config as per your Firefox version
* IF you DO NOT use RFP or are on ESR... then turn on each ESR section below
* non-RFP users:
Enable the whole section (see the SETUP tag below)
* RFP users:
Make sure these are reset in about:config. They are redundant. In fact, some
even cause RFP to not behave as you would expect and alter your fingerprint
* ESR RFP users:
Reset those *up to and including* your version. Add those *after* your version
as active prefs in your overrides. This is assuming that the patch wasn't also
backported to Firefox ESR. Backporting RFP patches to ESR is rare.
