firefox_change_prefs

Change parameters in firefox for better privacy and add some personnal conf.

When you open firefox, by default, it connects to :

nb DNS request : domain   
1 : www.mozilla.org.   
1 : snippets.cdn.mozilla.net.   
1 : location.services.mozilla.com.   
3 : ff.search.yahoo.com.   
1 : ocsp.digicert.com.   
1 : geo.mozilla.org.   
3 : search.yahoo.com.   
1 : self-repair.mozilla.org.   
1 : ciscobinary.openh264.org.   
1 : clients1.google.com.   
1 : search.services.mozilla.com.   
1 : safebrowsing.google.com.   
1 : aus4.mozilla.org.   
53 : safebrowsing-cache.google.com.

So how to fix it ?
1- Read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Oros42/firefox_change_prefs/master/user.js
2- Put user.js in your firefox profile's folder (/home/user/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxxx.default/).

This script removes all google, pocket and mozilla URL who can tracks you.

In the ./old/ directory, you can find an older python script that modifies the prefs.js file.
