/* 0514: disable Activity Stream (FF54+)
* Activity Stream is the default homepage/newtab in FF57+. It is based on metadata and browsing behavior,
* and includes telemetry and web content such as snippets, top stories (pocket), top sites, etc.
* - ONE: make sure to set your "home" and "newtab" to about:blank (or use an extension to control them)
* - TWO: DELETE the XPI file in your System Add-ons directory (note this get reinstalled on app updates)
* And/or you can try to control the ever-growing, ever-changing "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.*" prefs
* [FF63+] Activity Stream (AS) is now builtin and no longer an easily deletable system addon!
* We'll clean this up and move to a new number when ESR67 is released.
