Firefox settings for a security-/privacy-conscious user

Will Dormann made a nice post with Firefox settings that a security-/privacy-conscious user may want to enable:

If anybody else is making the switch to (or back to) Firefox, there are a few settings that a security-/privacy-conscious user may want to enable:

  1. Enable the Block AI enhancements toggle to disable all AI-related nonsense globally.
  2. Disable Telemetry & Data Collection.
  3. Disable "Firefox Home"
  4. Use "Strict" tracking protection
  5. Enable HTTPS-only mode

Bonus:
In about:config, set:

  • privacy.resistFingerprinting: true
  • media.peerconnection.enabled: false
  • geo.enabled: false
