And that opens the door to tracking hell.
How is that? I don't the feature either but it has nothing to do with
tracking.
The fact that the package is calling home (whether or not the location
of the IP is checked), is a form of tracking. Particularly since firefox
updates are being handled by Fedora and there is no need for our version
to be calling home to check for updates.
