1600s revamp 
- no need to enforce defaults (except the second cross-origin) = less items in prefs and about:support
- simplify header info
- add in that you need an extension for real control: i.e for most people, e.g I use uMatrix and have never can to whitelist anything. Kolanich has been on settings of 2 for years and only found one broken site: these are anecdotal and don;t reflect the real world: which is why the settings are pretty relaxed
- move the broken info out of header and onto the pref in a setup tag
- reference: https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js/issues/716#issuecomment-488527274
- thanks Kolanich and 🐈

README.md

user.js

A user.js is a configuration file that can control hundreds of Firefox settings. For a more technical breakdown and explanation, you can read more on the overview wiki page.

ghacks user.js

The ghacks user.js is a template which aims to provide as much privacy and enhanced security as possible, and to reduce tracking and fingerprinting as much as possible - while minimizing any loss of functionality and breakage (but it will happen).

Everyone, experts included, should at least read the implementation wiki page, as it contains important information regarding a few ghacks user.js settings.

Note that we do not recommend connecting over Tor on Firefox. Use the Tor Browser if your threat model calls for it, or for accessing hidden services.

Also be aware that this user.js is made specifically for Firefox. Using it as-is in other Gecko-based browsers can be counterproductive, especially in the Tor Browser.
