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.
  • Bug 1522567 - Add cryptomining and fingerprinting protection options to custom content blocking 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.
