We need to disable pocket for an Enterprise, it is a potential risk for Data Loss in our environment. Can you assist us in doing this via a windows registry key so we can push out through GPO.

This will not work for Multiple Users

1. Type about:config in the browser’s address bar and hit the enter-key afterwards. 2. Confirm that you will be careful if the prompt appears. 3. Search for browser.pocket.enabled. 4. Double-click on the preference to toggle its state from true to false.
