and you can stop reading when you reach the second section titled "Enter Bro")
- Option 1: Use our settings to tighten up encryption options. It *is* a fingerprinting attack
- vector, and we certainly do want to reduce any attack surface, but this is not how
- you *DEFEAT* fingerprinting - to do that you need large numbers to buy into the same
- enforced browser-wide settings (such as TBB), and/or you use OpSec.
- Option 2: Use Firefox defaults for the 1260's items (item 1260 default for SHA-1, is local only
- anyway). There is nothing *weak* about Firefox's defaults, but Mozilla (and other
- browsers) will always lag for fear of breakage and upset end-users

+ Option 2: Disable the ciphers in 1261, 1262 and 1263. These shouldn't break anything.
+ Optionally, disable the ciphers in 1264.
