Comment(by runa):

 Replying to [comment:9 mikeperry]:
 > Thanks Runa! If that pref is the cause for all of the Google link
 failures, then simply removing that code should do the trick. There are
 other reasons to remove it, too (#5279).

 Where in the codebase should I look?

 > However, we'll probably going to want to ponder the side effects of that
 removal. I know it might change a bit about how New Identity works in
 terms of the tab tags (which are only defense in depth anyways), for
 example...

 Any suggestions on where to start to figure out how this will change New
 Identity and, possibly, other things?
