What
The record of which risky organization-pushed settings you have consented to is now read and written through the remote storage client under the key remote-settings-consent, falling back to the local file when no remote store is present.
Details
A record that cannot be read is now reported rather than silently treated as no consent at all.
Evidence
remote-settings-consent
