Turn off additional telemetry from Mozilla Firefox

For starters I wouldn’t co all the paranoic about Mozilla getting some telemetry as most of them are not about privacy. Some of you probably will want to disable those also this could help speed up Firefox a bit.

Get into internal settings by typing `about:config` in url bar and turn all of these to false by double clicking

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.feeds.telemetry
browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.telemetry
browser.ping-centre.telemetry
toolkit.telemetry.archive.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.bhrPing.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.firstShutdownPing.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.newProfilePing.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.reportingpolicy.firstRun
toolkit.telemetry.shutdownPingSender.enabled
toolkit.telemetry.unified
toolkit.telemetry.updatePing.enabled
experiments.activeExperiment
experiments.enabled
experiments.supported
network.allow-experiments

I wouldn’t recommend you to do this on any non-stable channel release as those are heavy related with telemetry and making Firefox great.
