 Firefox has a settings for overriding website color choices with local
 choices.
 These are found under about:preferences -> Fonts & Colors -> Colors... or
 alternative under about:config -> browser*color
 Forcing local colors appears to work, but it now appears to ignore custom
 color choices, whether specified in the menu or attempting to use System
 Colors, and instead locks all websites to a black font on a white
 background.
 Url color choice still works.
 Before the recent update, under Tor using Firefox 52, this worked as
 expected, and the feature also works as expected with vanilla Firefox 62.
 Have been unable to find mention of this being a recently fixed issue in
 Firefox.
