There are eleven settings that start with "privacy.resistFingerprinting". The first one, which only says "privacy.resistFingerprinting" is set to False by default and I still get the colored vertical lines.
In my setup only three of them are altered from the default values.
privacy.resistFingerprinting privacy.resistFingerprinting.block_mozAddonManager privacy.resistFingerprinting.letterboxing
"privacy.resistFingerprinting" is the one i was talking about specifically, which works for me in the scenarios detailed in my response.
It's been a while since i setup this install but i know i used the arkenfox scripts as a baseline.
I have no idea how much deviation i have for the default baseline so YMMV greatly.
I only mentioned that setting because it's one i use to fix my specific problems and it might help as a starting point.
