-* name: arkenfox user.js
-* date: 13 January 2025
-* version: 133
-* urls: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js [repo]
-* : https://arkenfox.github.io/gui/ [interactive]
-* license: MIT: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/blob/master/LICENSE.txt
-
-* README:
-
- 1. Consider using Tor Browser if it meets your needs or fits your threat model
- * https://2019.www.torproject.org/about/torusers.html
- 2. Read the entire wiki
- * https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki
- 3. If you skipped step 2, return to step 2
- 4. Make changes in a user-overrides.js
- * There are often trade-offs and conflicts between security vs privacy vs anti-tracking
- and these need to be balanced against functionality & convenience & breakage
- * Some site breakage and unintended consequences will happen. Everyone's experience will differ
- e.g. some user data is erased on exit (section 2800), change this to suit your needs
- * While not 100% definitive, search for "[SETUP" tags
- 5. Some tag info
- [SETUP-SECURITY] it's one item, read it
- [SETUP-WEB] can cause some websites to break
- [SETUP-CHROME] changes how Firefox itself behaves (i.e. not directly website related)
- 6. Override Recipes: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/issues/1080
-
-* RELEASES: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/releases
-
- * Use the arkenfox release that matches your Firefox version
- - DON'T wait for arkenfox to update Firefox, nothing major changes these days
- * Each release
- - run prefsCleaner to reset prefs made inactive, including deprecated (9999)
- * ESR
- - It is recommended to not use the updater, or you will get a later version which may cause issues.
- So you should manually append your overrides (and keep a copy), and manually update when you
- change ESR releases (arkenfox is already past that release)
- - If you decide to keep updating, then the onus is on you - also see section 9999
