:exclamation: ULTRA UBER IMPORTANT. Do not just take the `user.js` and use it with your profile. There are some considerations to make first that concern your online security etc Do not just take the `user.js` and use it with your profile. It's a **TEMPLATE**, treat it as such. Much has gone into making the defaults responsible and to not put anyone at risk. Below are items and pointers you should read.
- Tracking Protection (TP) and Safe Browsing (SB) (section 0400) :exclamation: ULTRA UBER IMPORTANT. You shouldn't need to do anything with these two items, just be aware of them.
* If you modify section 0400 and disable TP+SB, you should at least install uBlock Origin (or similar)
* uBlock Origin applies by default to more than just Private Browsing mode, allows wider scope, can be more comprehensive with lists, can be used on a granular level, and has no possible over-reach/censorship (you are in control) - Auto-INSTALLING of Firefox updates is disabled (0302a). Auto-CHECKING for updates is not (and never has been).
* We recommend running TP and SB as well as uBlock Origin * :star: You will **always get prompts** and reminders from Firefox
- Auto updates checks for Firefox <sup>this pref was removed in [FF63](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1420514)</sup> and extensions are not disabled (0301's) but auto-installing them is (0302's) * Please keep your software up to date in a timely fashion.
* It's important to keep software updated, we just recommend doing so manually for.. lots of reasons. - We provide information on Tracking Protection (TP) and Safe Browsing (SB) (section 0400)
* The default settings allow reminders/notifications, but you still have to manually apply them. * :star: Disable TP and SB at **your own risk**
* The only part we have **ever** disabled, are the real-time binary checks with Google (0414)
