+ * This setting controls if the option "Display in Firefox" is available in the setting below

+ * [WHY] pdfjs is lightweight, open source, and secure: the last exploit was June 2015 [1]
+ *   It doesn't break "state separation" of browser content (by not sharing with OS, independent apps).
+ *   It maintains disk avoidance and application data isolation. It's convenient. You can still save to disk.
+ * [NOTE] JS can still force a pdf to open in-browser by bundling its own code
+ * [SETUP-CHROME] You may prefer a different pdf reader for security/workflow reasons

+/* 0701: disable IPv6
+ * IPv6 can be abused, especially with MAC addresses, and can leak with VPNs: assuming
+ * your ISP and/or router and/or website is IPv6 capable. Most sites will fall back to IPv4
+ * [SETUP-WEB] PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR: this pref *might* be the cause
+ * [STATS] Firefox telemetry (Sept 2022) shows ~8% of successful connections are IPv6
+ * [NOTE] This is an application level fallback. Disabling IPv6 is best done at an
+ * OS/network level, and/or configured properly in VPN setups. If you are not masking your IP,
+ * then this won't make much difference. If you are masking your IP, then it can only help.
+ * [NOTE] PHP defaults to IPv6 with "localhost". Use "php -S 127.0.0.1:PORT"
+ * [TEST] https://ipleak.org/
