Some settings in about:config should be altered to different values, but I can't seem to find them. I ask you to create pull requests to fix those, if possible. The settings in question are:

Disable the predictive service (Necko):
network.predictor.enabled - false

[Squall-Leonhart]

these prefs do not exist by default, so add them.

this isn't worth a bug.

Where do I add them? In modules/libpref/init/all.js or in browser/app/profile/firefox.js or somewhere else? This is why I need help.

this isn't worth a bug.

Oh, come on. Bugs have been opened for less here. I need support and want to change some about:config values, i.e. implement a change, this is definitely worth a bug. And don't tell me what to do, I have contributed stuff already, contrary to you might I add.

Thanks for the non-support @Squall-Leonhart...

Sorry @Peacock365 but I'm currently too hassled to do any pull requests in the foreseeable future ☹️

If you use Windows to build and test your pull requests, you can try see if changing this does the job? -

Does the job. Thank you for pointing me to the location of the setting, @laniakea64! Took the opportunity and got rid of some SSL telemetry, as well (new PRs created.) Thumbs up!

Any idea where the setting network.predictor.enabled can be found in WF Current?

@Peacock365 You have searchbar on top, you can find 😄
Here it's:

@Peacock365
You really shouldn't patch browser internals just to change about:config options. Use about:config context menu and choose New or try autoconfig.
