Comment (by joebt):
Investigating any new browser change is always good, but will webvr even
work with WebGL blocked by default in NoScript?
There's always a chance something could leak or be detectable, even if
virtual reality doesn't work for users. A brief search of NoScript's site
and the web didn't turn up any discussion of NoScript adding a block webVR
option.
In TBB - Fx 52.2, about:config pref "dom.vr.oculus.enabled" is true, by
default.
It looks like 6 other similar prefs are set false, for now.
For those already checking it out in Fx nightlies, doesn't it show up
under plugins manager, where it can be disabled?
