Comment:
I looked at `nsSearchService.js` and it appears that setting the pref
"browser.search.update" to false already disables any search engine
updates:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
esr52/search?q=BROWSER_SEARCH_PREF+%2B+%22update%22%2C&redirect=false
In `browser/app/profile/000-tor-browser.js` in Tor Browser, we already
have
{{{
pref("browser.search.update", false);
}}}
so I think no action is needed.
