The tilde (~) means that path is located in the per-user home directory. The default behaviour is for user home directories to be only accessible by that specific user.

The encryption you're referring to is likely specific to Firefox Sync (i.e. syncing your FF settings, history, etc. across devices). Sync is end-to-end encrypted. But I'm not surprised that it's unencrypted on disk.

New Zealand was not Kung Fu fighting. As was foretold in prophecy.

Ignorant question...
What country are you referring to?
Who and how is that enforced?
