Subject: [ISSUE] Default firefox settings
Date: Fri, 25 Dec 2020 07:30:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <gh-mailinglist-notifications-41a7ca26-5023-4802-975b-f1789d68868e-void-packages-27419@inbox.vuxu.org> (raw)

New issue by anjandev on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/27419

Description:
So firefox's default settings are not the most privacy respecting:

- google is the default search engine
- Firefox studies enabled
- Telemetry enabled

All of these dont affect usability of firefox but they do affect privacy a great deal.

The people over at postmarketos have a `mobile-config-firefox` package that is installed automatically when the user installs firefox. 

https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/mobile-config-firefox

This package changes alot of those settings to be more privacy respecting and I appreciate not having to dig through settings on every new firefox install to change those settings. The user can of course uninstall this package to get a vanilla firefox experience.

I was wondering if we could take a similar approach to firefox in void linux's repositories. 

Thanks for your hard work maintainers!
