See what they’ve done to me, ma? Twenty years ago when I started surfing on the Web I’d post my name, email and so on (fortunately a good guy told me then to at least always avoid sharing my true “snail-mail” address) and now I behave as a newborn soldier, always cautious, often over-cautious, maybe occasionally paranoid. I just dislike IDs hanging around and if my battle doesn’t change anything at least it doesn’t harm. Setting both to “” (about:config or with user.js) doesn’t change anything, but because I set pref values with Firefox Autoconfig rather than with a user.js file I can clear both on start and this time they are rebuilt but with different values :ĬlearPref(“”) ĬlearPref(“”) Īm I over-reacting? Maybe. No idea what the second relates to, but the first is surprising given all telemetry is blocked here. I just downloaded FF98.0 from the latter and it’s exactly the same as the installer from the former : hence, no dltoken identifier.īesides this dltoken, there are two more IDs right in a Firefox’s profile, in the prefs.js file, accessible as well in about:config : AND I always download the installer from but I do acknowledge provided in the article. I do download a new installer each time a new Firefox version is released and perform a clean install (previous version is uninstalled).
