These are controlled by Torbutton's Preferences->Security
Settings->Headers->"Don't send referer during Tor usage" option, which
sets the appropriate Firefox settings.

> I have been doing that cross checking fort my Mac, and noticed these two that are not there.

>
> I have -network.http.sendRefererHeader "0" and
> -network.http.sendSecureXSiteReferer "false"
>
> These values are both changed to "2" and
> "true"
> when I enable Torbutton.

> Aren't these configurations ways that web sites log and track users
> and shouldn't they remain "0" and "false" to keep one safe and anonymous?
