Settings protection: important settings are enforced/locked within librewolf.cfg and policies.json, those settings cannot be changed by addons/updates/LibreWolf itself or unwanted/accidental manipulation To change those settings you can easily do it by editing librewolf.cfg and policies.json. User settings updates: gHacks/pyllyukko base is kept up to date. In other words, zero unauthorized or background connections by default. IJWY (I Just Want You To Shut Up): embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. Completely Independent Build: LibreWolf uses a completely independent build from Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path.

You will have the the latest features, and security updates. LibreWolf is NOT associated with Mozilla or its products.įeatures Latest Version of Firefox: LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. LibreWolf uses more than 500 privacy/security/performance settings, patches, LibreWolf-Addons (optional) and is designed to minimize data collection and telemetry as much as possible (updater, crashreporter and Firefox’s integrated addons that don’t respect privacy are removed). It is the community run successor to LibreFox

This project is an independent fork of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom.
