How to permanently disable private browsing in Firefox

Disable private browsing (incognito mode) permanently in Firefox (Ubuntu 20.04)

I learned this here with @mkaply.

Follow the recipe:

1. In terminal, go to: /usr/lib/firefox/distribution

Obs.: This is the correct directory if you are using Firefox version 91.0 and Ubuntu 20.04. Depending on the Firefox version and/or OS this might be different.

1. If there is no policies.json file, then create one:

 $ sudo touch policies.json

1. The file's content needs to be:

{
  "policies": {
    "DisablePrivateBrowsing": true
  }
}

1. If you are facing problems with "read-only", invoke your favorite editor using sudo, such as:

$ sudo emacs policies.json 
$ sudo vim policies.json 
$ sudo gedit policies.json

1. Re-start firefox and try using Control-Shift-P. Hopefully, it won't work.
