 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1440022, which might be
 relevant here.
 The ` "global broadcast"/real time updates API`, should not be enabled as
 long as `dom.push.enabled=false`. This is because `PushService` is only
 initialized in one place: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-
 esr68/rev/4fc15df791ad4d3ceaf1a958af2bfc1252433ca8/dom/push/PushComponents.jsm#22.
 And https://searchfox.org/mozilla-
 esr68/rev/4fc15df791ad4d3ceaf1a958af2bfc1252433ca8/dom/push/PushBroadcastService.jsm
 uses `PushService` but it does not initialize it, just adds some listeners
 which will never be used.

 `dom.push.enabled` is false in esr68 desktop, but not on mobile AFAIK. We
 do have `pref("dom.push.serverURL", "");` which should do the trick, but
 we might want to have also  `pref("dom.push.enabled", false)` just in
 case.
