Given that this includes privacy and ad blocking, I'd consider it a critical security vulnerability -- it might be better to switch to Chrome for a day.
Was that fixed fast or something? I launched Firefox an hour ago and there wasn't any problem.
A patch was rolled out through "Studies", which appears to be a two-way channel. If "Firefox Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> Allow Firefox to install and run studies" is checked, then you got the patch... and Firefox is getting data about you.
