* Since Firefox implemented [state](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/537eb902106f5cacebfd7a77555193ba4573dc6e/SecureFox.js#L73-L88) and [network](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/537eb902106f5cacebfd7a77555193ba4573dc6e/SecureFox.js#L93-L100) partitioning, it is recommended but no longer necessary to **clear browsing data** after every session. To enable this functionality, add [these prefs](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/7335ba361f1d9f1e6a0198fb8caa892ab5d2af2d/Securefox.js#L397-L422) to your overrides as appropriate.
* **Google Safe Browsing** (GSB) is disabled. Please use DNS-level protection like [NextDNS](https://nextdns.io/?from=xujj63g5), and check out our configuration guide [here](https://github.com/yokoffing/NextDNS-Config). If you do not have other means of protection, then enable GSB locally by adding [these prefs](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/b354f21405fcfedee8ae9a132eac8d243b59ced7/SecureFox.js#L974-L983) to your overrides.
* The native **password manager** is also disabled. If you don't use something like [KeePass](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keepassxc-browser/), [Bitwarden](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bitwarden-password-manager/), or [1Password](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1password-x-password-manager), then add [these prefs](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/fad7080faa1b88e5a30324ebffe5a15dc47b2e08/Securefox.js#L798-L804) to re-enable native password management.
* **Firefox Sync** is disabled. To restore functionality, change [this pref](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/b354f21405fcfedee8ae9a132eac8d243b59ced7/SecureFox.js#L989-L992) to `true`, or use a addon like [xBrowserSync](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/xbs/).
* **Firefox Sync** is disabled. To restore functionality, add [this pref](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/f00953f084099c8696c185d6d8d727da0098561f/Securefox.js#L1057-L1058) to your overrides section, or use a addon like [xBrowserSync](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/xbs/).
* **Site notifications** are disabled. To enable, add [these prefs](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/82dc44a55844d2830bba37576e47367206f70e63/Securefox.js#L1090-L1092) to your overrides section.
* **Location requests** are rejected. To re-enable, add [this](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/82dc44a55844d2830bba37576e47367206f70e63/Securefox.js#L1101-L1102) to the bottom of the `user.js`.
* If your threat level calls for _anonymity_ and not just reasonable _privacy_,<sup>[1](https://thenewoil.org/secprivanon.html)</sup> please use the [TOR browser](https://www.torproject.org). :thumbsup:
