Arkenfox <https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js> is a community maintained user.js file used for browser hardening.

Proposing to implement it's configuration in GNU Guix's IceCat mainly:

- geo.provider.network.uri (it's pinging google servers currently)

- Actual disabling of WebRTC

- Clearing on re-start (privacy.clearOnShutdown.*)

- toolkit.telemetry.enable = false instead of forced true

- etc..

Additional configuration should be defined in guix-home with sane default so that the browser can be a sufficient replacement for Tor Browser Bundle.
