The Issue: privacy.trackingprotection.fingerprinting is not yet avalible in many FireFox-esr versions provided by popular operating systems.

Suggestion: Inform users that this segment may not be available in all version of FireFox.

Could you check which version of Firefox introduces it and when is it scheduled to come to ESR?

It landed in FF67 [see https://www.ghacks.net/2019/02/05/firefox-67-cryptomining-and-fingerprinting-protection/], and is therefore part of ESR68 which is due out next week. Just add a [FF67+] next to it on the site

You don't need to attribute me, and I'd rather you didn't: just point to the facts if you really feel you need to

  • Bug 1527917 - Enable cryptomining and fingerprinting blocking options in about:preferences.

Ok, I removed the attribution and I guess it's enough for people to be able to come here from that pull request if they are interested in the upstream issues.
