# Firefox `policies.json`

- https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/

The file is pretty self-explanatory, but I prefer Chromium way of handling
enterprise policies since it allows me to cut them to multiple different files
per whatever I am doing.

## WARNING TO LIBREWOLF USERS

This file takes priority over
`/usr/share/librewolf/distribution/policies.json` so don't apply this or
a lot of LibreWolf specific customizations stops being in force.

## Extensions

They are mostly self-explanatory.

### Privacy Badger

- `jid1-MnnxcxisBPnSXQ-eff@jetpack` - Downloaded directly from EFF.

Configured to learn locally and also in incognito as opposed to only relying
on vendor list. Also not display the "Welcome to Privacy Badger screen".

- https://github.com/EFForg/privacybadger/blob/master/src/data/schema.json

## Search engines

> Policy SearchEngines is only allowed on ESR.

But who cares? Anyway thus DuckDuckGo extension is installed by default so
when testing this policy I won't have to see Google.

Additionally it's a lie since at least Nightly reads it too without
complaining.
