The settings is literally what OP changed, and mentioned that the _source code which needs patches_ contains the URLs, which is correct.

You can verify that easily by grepping the codebase.

As LibreWolf doesn't patch these hardcoded URLs out, their marketing is wrong and a fraudulous statement. They don't remove these features and they are also not stubbing out the APIs (e.g. like TOR's patchset does).

I'm not here to astroturf anything, maybe just get your shit together and stop accusing people randomly?

This is a patch file from the repo that you listed. Does it not remove the problematic hard-coded URLs?

I need to know the outcome of this argument, and also the mistaken party's ultimate response to said outcome—whether he concedes gracefully, quietly ghosts away, commences all-out holy war perhaps—that I may quietly judge his character thereupon.
I would read a novel written by you. good sir.
