Title:
  Firefox should have separate tick box for disabling of data sharing of
  the Firefox Health Report in the normal preferences area

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It would be nice if like in the Windows and Mac version in Firefox,
  for the Linux version of Firefox to also have the option in the normal
  about:preferences to turn off data sharing of the Firefox Health
  Report, as you can do this in about:healthreport, but it is not very
  obvious there so it would be nice if there was an option here too:
  about:preferences#advanced

  Another thing on this matter is that when you disable data sharing in
  about:healthreport, the tick box in about:preferences#advanced becomes
  unticked, but as the tick box is meant to enable and disable both data
  sharing and the actual generation of the report, it is misleading to
  have it unticked, instead there should be a separate tick box there
  for this option. It also means that one can think that their report
  generation is not on, but in fact the data sharing has just been
  disabled there. This also means that when one disables data sharing
  there, they have no way to disable the entire report generation thing
  because the box in the normal area become unticked.
