Added "browser.sessionstore.privacy_level = 2" to Firefox: Privacy Related "about:config" Tweaks. See #310
Added "network.IDN_show_punycode = true" to Firefox: Privacy Related "about:config" Tweaks. Not rendering IDNs as their punycode equivalent leaves you open to phishing attacks that can be very difficult to notice. source
