This tool will help you to create a Firefox profile with the defaults you like.
You select which features you want to enable and disable and in the end you get a download link for a zip-file with your profile template. You can for example disable some functions, which send data to Mozilla and Google, or disable several annoying Firefox functions like Mozilla Hello or the Pocket integration.
Each Setting has a short explanation and for the non obvious settings links to resources describing the feature and the possible problems with it.
DOMPurify sanitizes HTML and prevents XSS attacks. You can feed DOMPurify with string full of dirty HTML and it will return a string (unless configured otherwise) with clean HTML. DOMPurify will strip out everything that contains dangerous HTML and thereby prevent XSS attacks and other nastiness. It’s also damn bloody fast. We use the technologies the browser provides and turn them into an XSS filter. The faster your browser, the faster DOMPurify will be.
How do I use it?
It’s easy. Just include DOMPurify on your website.
Tip: bind CTRL + click to open a link in temporary container in Settings > Isolation >Global: set Ctrl/Cmd+Left Mouse to ‘Different from Tab domain (& subdomains)’

Evgeny Morozov was a critic of Big Tech long before it became fashionable. Then he built The Syllabus, an online system that breaks the laws of the attention economy. At a time when misinformation about Covid-19 can spread faster than the virus itself, his system is even more important. I was with him when he first shared it with the world.
DRM’s Dead Canary: How We Just Lost the Web, What We Learned from It, and What We Need to Do Next
EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) explains what EME (Encrypted Media Extensions) is and how it is gonna fuck up our future.
EFF has been fighting against DRM and the laws behind it for a decade and a half, intervening in the US Broadcast Flag, the UN Broadcasting Treaty, the European DVB CPCM standard, the W3C EME standard and many other skirmishes, battles and even wars over the years. With that long history behind us, there are two things we want you to know about DRM:
1. Everybody on the inside secretly knows that DRM technology is irrelevant, but DRM law is everything; and
2. The reason companies want DRM has nothing to do with copyright.
