Librefox

This project aims at enforcing the privacy and security of Firefox without forking the project. Librefox uses more than 500 privacy/security/performance settings, patches, Librefox-Addons (optional) and a cleaned bundle of Firefox (updater, crashreporter and Firefox's integrated addons that don't respect privacy are removed). Updated browser: because this project is not a fork, it is kept updated with the latest Firefox version. Limit internet access for extensions (firewall-test-feature). IJWY (I Just Want You To Shut Up): embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed (zero unauthorized connection by default). Settings protection: important settings are enforced/locked within mozilla.cfg and policies.json, those settings cannot be changed by addons/updates/Firefox or unwanted/accidental manipulation; To change those settings you can easily do it by editing mozilla.cfg and policies.json.
