Firefox now uses ["persistent startup listeners"](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1503721) by default. + If set to `true`, uBO will hard block all network requests when the browser launches until _all_ the filter lists and rules are loaded and ready, at which time uBO will force a reload of the tabs for which there were network requests blocked during the setup phase.
