{{{
Possible solution - disable the "sync" function in TBB?
}}}
Downloaded newest update of TBB (x86_64 2.2.3.9-4 on my Debian/testing -
updated) and
Preferences -> Sync is NOT enabled (just "Set Up Firefox Sync" & "Pair A
Device" links.)
Are you implying taking the links out altogether under Preferences -> Sync
(making "Pair A Device" the only option?)
