Starting in macOS 13, creating a `policies.json` file in the app directory will no longer work, due to additional System Integrity Protection. Firefox will be likely be updated to support a new approach for setting policies via a file on macOS, however we will need to find a way to override policies for all prior versions, e.g. via user defaults system / plist, or otherwise. This is needed in order to at least disable automatic app updates.
