Comment (by Diapolo):

 I did the following and it is NOT working, I can't disable it:
 1. Started Tor Browser and confirmed windows were getting auto-resized
 2. Set "extensions.torbutton.resize_windows" pref to false
 3. Quit and restarted Tor Browser
 4. Confirmed that "extensions.torbutton.resize_windows" was still false
 5. Windows are STILL getting resized (even if 4. does apply)

 Why I don't want this is easy, at least I want to opt-out. It looks ugly
 as hell to see the desktop surrounding the browser window. UX wise this is
 THE fingerprinting protection that makes me feel upset!
