Help me stop the DNS log flood with connection requests to

push.services.mozilla.com

which are blocked.

dom.push.connection.enabled = false dom.push.enabled = false

Seems a tad deceptive. UI settings for notifications has none allowed and new requests blocked.


On a related note I would like instructions to have the browser cease attempted conversations with these resources

firefox.settings.services.mozilla.com shavar.services.mozilla.com content-signature-2.cdn.mozilla.net aus5.mozilla.org

All experiments disabled yet normandy.cdn.mozilla.net


If mozilla respects privacy why are not experiments opt-IN?


Thank you for your kind help

Some of those domains are used to get the latest configuration data like for search engines. This allows to modify Mozilla to easily make changes and fix issues without the need to issue an update.

The aus5.mozilla.org server is used to check for updates. See also:
