I'm trying the new sync feature (i'm using firefox 31 on Ubuntu 14.04) and I discovered that despite I disabled the syncronization of password, Firefox save on my account the username of each protected sites. We should have the ability to disable this feature, because it could be dangerous to share informations like that (for example the username of an aonline bank!).

Hi lukeba, Thank you for your question, this is odd. The feature in the sync settings is unchecked as well? Is there a preference that stores form data? That may be attributing to this.

"services.sync.pref" search for on the about:config page to see if there is one listed there. (formfill.enable? )

I hope this helps.

In sync settings I've checked all options: just the password sync is not enabled. formfill.enable is enabled, but it should not affect syncronized data.

Were they synced before? I wonder if they were selected if they would store once synced once to that profile.

If you go to the password manager Options > Security > Passwords "Saved Passwords" and remove any passwords that should not be there. After the next sync, is that data still there?

Wait a moment: I'm talking about synced username, not their passwords. I don't want that these informations (username) would synced.

Ah, my apologies. A past solution to this was to delete an old autocomplete synced entry: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Deleting_autocomplete_entries
