For anyone who want to try the new version download https://github.com/schomery/privacy-settings/blob/master/builds/[email protected]?raw=true and drop it into Firefox browser

For the options that have 3 possible values, perhaps include what each value means. If it gets too big, can use tooltips or an expansion dialog.

Also, here is another possible addition. See https://github.com/pyllyukko/user.js/issues/135

loop.logDomains true false false

[schomery]

loop.logDomains true false false

If user moves the slider, the description also changes;

If user moves the slider, the description also changes.

Fantastic!

From a UX perspective, the tradeoff is quite reasonable. The user cannot see all meanings of all options simultaneously, but in return is presented with a less overwhelming UI. It also encourages exploration, which will likely enhance user education, and thus knowledge.

Good work! :)

media.navigator.enabled 'true' 'false' 'false' If set to true, it exposes unique identifiers of all audio/video devices. Check it here: https://browserleaks.com/webrtc

browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled '' 'true' '' Firefox takes and stores screenshots of recently visited websites in \Profiles\profile.default\thumbnails. This parameter does not exist by default, but can be added and set to true to prevent this behavior.

Also loop.enabled can be removed, because support for Firefox Hello has been discontinued in Firefox 49.

UPD. @Gitoffthelawn, yes, it shoud be true.

[Gitoffthelawn]

@Faberman For browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled don't you mean true and not false?

[Gitoffthelawn]

Interestingly, even if WebRTC is disabled, media.navigator.enabled still enumerates all audio/video devices on the target system.

@Faberman we will have media.navigator.enabled and browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled on the next release. Thanks!
