FirefoxPortable.ini - why move?

[starengine]

I've been through @empirestate amazing guide.
But something's don't make sense for me...

Why move FirefoxPortable.ini?
Surely there's a reason why it is where it is?
Or is it that the exe simply looks in the same folder, finds the file and uses that?

What happens if you edit as mentioned, but then you leave it in it's location?
Does it get over written?

Some other details mentioned:

1. Disabling WebRTC
2. Disabling WebGL
3. Installing CanvasBlocker for Canvas tracking protection

Really? Are these things needed?
(Only asking because I don't know.)

The thing is... if ebay get so sly that they employ deceptive tactics to identify users... then they could be big trouble. That would be illegal. Imagine if other websites could pinpoint you by using deceptive tactics... they would be shutdown quick.

For CanvasBlocker... I read on one website that blocking could help them narrow you down much much quicker. 0.1% of users are tech savvy enough to know to worry about - so when you start using, you become part of the 0.1% club. It's similar to standing in a crowd of 10,000 people - but using a mask to make sure people can't see your face - definitely works... but the problem is that YOU are the ONLY one wearing a mask!

I was planning on using Firefox Portable + Dropbox for multiple user ID's.
Not made my mind up on how best to do this now.

Any replies would be great.

Thanks.

I personally when use stealth account create a new pc user, download firefox portable, Disabling WebRTC, Disabling WebGL, never tryed canvas blocker with ebay. But without blocking canvas the stealth account works fine, i would try running stealth account on vmware also.

This is truly all you need.

Disabling webrtc/webgl is unnecessary if you're keeping your accounts separated by user accounts, or better yet, virtualbox machines
