Yeah, I'm not a privacy expert. And I didn't ever think of user.js as privacy protection personally. I use it to turn off AI and other things that annoy me. Privacy-wise I use OBO and few others. The arkenfox settings I used as a basis but I removed anything that wasn't ai related or that I didn't understand.
I think the main protection I'm looking for at the moment is fingerprinting protection. ON their site they do claim that, but there isn't much info (at least that I can understand about that).
Okay, that is a different topic in my mind. User.js is about settings. The settings it impacts can be anything. You may want to try librewolf if privacy is your focus.
