(That puts a whole new twist on being a foxy grandma!) Edit: Sorry for the dad joke 😓 <b>If you want a private, secure, fast browsing experience and don't want to deal with breakage, this setup is for you.</b> My objective is to make the defaults sufficient enough for the average privacy-minded user, but remain trouble-free enough that my grandmother could use it. <strike>(That puts a whole new twist on being a foxy grandma!)</strike> Edit: Sorry for the dad joke 😓
<b>A note to advanced users and super privacy-concious bros:</b> I made Firefox as secure as I could to the point of breakage. (The only thing that could remotely cause breakage with my setup here is that third-party cookies are blocked by default.) So things like DRM are still enabled, and you won't find settings like <privacy.firstparty.isolate> or <network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy> mentioned here. <b>BetterFox is designed to set-and-forget, not to troubledshoot and tinker.</b> If your threat level calls not just privacy but anonymity, then please use the <a href="https://www.torproject.org">TOR browser</a>. <b>A note to super privacy-concious users:</b> I made Firefox as secure as I could to the point of breakage.
