revert location of [FF and OS tags 
- but only if the tag applies to ALL prefs for that number
- note pocket pref FF version changed (the old one was for the old deprecated pref)
- also some minor cleaning up elsewhere (eg see above pref= see xxxx), range tags in deprecated became release tags (because the the deprecated section tells you when it was deprecated, etc.

README.md

user.js

A user.js is a configuration file that can control hundreds of Firefox settings. For a more technical breakdown and explanation, you can read more on the overview wiki page.

ghacks user.js

The ghacks user.js is a template which aims to provide as much privacy and enhanced security as possible, and to reduce tracking and fingerprinting as much as possible - while minimizing any loss of functionality and breakage (but it will happen).

Everyone, experts included, should at least read the implementation wiki page, as it contains important information regarding a few ghacks user.js settings.

Note that we do not recommend connecting over Tor on Firefox. Use the Tor Browser if your threat model calls for it, or for accessing hidden services.

Also be aware that this user.js is made specifically for Firefox. Using it as-is in other Gecko-based browsers can be counterproductive, especially in the Tor Browser.
