 unless you have custom code that re-implements this I don't think the pref
 does anything anymore:
 pref("dom.mozTCPSocket.enabled", false);
  - hxxps://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-esr60/search?q=mozTCPSocket

 pref("browser.usedOnWindows10", true);
  - dead pref? hxxps://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5dd17564f294 ->
 also uplifted to FF50
  - hxxps://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-esr60/search?q=usedOnWindows10 -> 2
 remnants for .introURL but nothing for "browser.usedOnWindows10"

 pref("browser.selfsupport.enabled", false);
 pref("browser.selfsupport.url", "");
  - both removed in FF55 -> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/1361578
  - hxxps://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-esr60/search?q=browser.selfsupport -> 0
 results
  - hxxps://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-esr60/search?q=selfsupport -> 8 results
 but nothing that looks related to these 2 prefs


 pref("browser.newtabpage.directory.ping", "data:text/plain,");
  - dead pref? removed in FF55: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/1241390


 pref("browser.newtabpage.directory.source", "data:text/plain,");
 pref("browser.newtabpage.enhanced", false);
 pref("browser.newtabpage.introShown", true);
  - all 3 were removed in FF60:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_id=1370930,1433133

 pref("browser.newtabpage.remote", false);
  - last remnants removed in FF60 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/1355166)
