Can you provide some example websites with a comment on which mode breaks the websites
from privacy-settings.
I wonder if network.http.sendSecureXSiteReferrer
will prevent some affiliate programs from working. I'm thinking of sites in which the user logs in to a site, and then clicks on a link that loads another site, on which the user makes a purchase. The user then receives a rebate or cash back for the purchase on the second site.
I wonder if setting that option to 'false' will prevent those types of systems from working.
In general, most well-designed sites don't need the referrer to be set, but quite a few sites are not well-designed.
For example, I wonder if sites that rely on keycaptcha.com will work if that setting is disabled. From what I've tested, keycaptcha.com requires a valid referrer and they often use https.
The settings security.tls.unrestricted_rc4_fallback
and security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts.use_static_list
, when disabled, should prevent all RC4 encrypted sites from loading. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, since RC4 is not secure, but it will likely break those sites. There is a list of some of the sites here: https://bug1124039.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8575374
The odd thing about disabling security.tls.unrestricted_rc4_fallback
and security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts.use_static_list
is that items on the list still seem to load without error. They should not load at all. It's either a Firefox bug, a Privacy Settings bug, or an "I'm not understanding something at the moment because I'm too tired" bug.

@Gitoffthelawn I added a new button. There is certainly a trade off between keep user privacy and being compatible. So I am just doing the minimum damage in this mode. Give it a try and let me know what you think

I will take a look! Thanks!
