Public bug reported:

This package sets Firefox default start page to https://start.ubuntu-
mate.org which contains Google Analytics and Cloudflare trackers.

In my opinion, a start page should not contain any remote tracker (i.e.
should not load anything rom third party domains).

Content of the package:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd64/ubuntu-mate-default-settings/filelist

Content of /usr/lib/firefox/ubuntumate.cfg:
$ cat /usr/lib/firefox/ubuntumate.cfg
//
defaultPref("browser.startup.homepage", "https://start.ubuntu-mate.org";);

What I expect:
uMatrix should not show any red line when loading default start page of 
Ubuntu-Mate OS.
