Shield Study: Privacy

When we want to know the effects of certain Firefox changes to improve privacy, we can make the changes in an arm/variation of this shield study add-on, so we can measure the effect of the changes via Telemetry.

Current study

To see what the add-on is studying, check the studyConfig.variations in lib/study.js.

Run it

The easiest way to run the study add-on is with the shield cli.

  1. npm i -g shield-study-cli jpm
  2. shield run . -- -b Aurora

You can also make shield start Firefox with a certain variation:

shield run . <variation> -- -b Aurora
