This article describes how to make a fresh Firefox installation “quieter” by disabling automatic connections and background checks (such as the captive-portal detectportal request and the Heartbeat survey), listing specific UI tweaks and about:config preferences to change, and providing a user.js file to apply the changes to testing profiles; it emphasizes the changes are intended for pentesting/testing VMs and not for regular daily browsing.
