Chill out, this preference only determines what is logged locally (never sent to the server). It's a debugging tool.

Look, at this point it’s not the user’s responsibility to “chill out”. It’s very much Firefox’s responsibility to try to repair their reputation by:

1. being completely transparent about all the mechanisms that data or code can be pushed to or pulled by the browser, or pushed from or pulled from the browser; and

2. having a toggle for all of them, yes every single one, in Privacy & Security.
