I don't know.  I personally tend to side with upstream on their decisions -
and I don't believe Mozilla is acting in bad faith.

First of all, when you install Fx, it asks you specifically if you want to
participate in Fx Data Collection - you can opt out at that point.
If you change your mind later, you can go into preferences and security and
either disable or enable it.

It was quickly and forcefully pointed out to Mozilla that the automatic
installation of a game was something that most considered part
of that category.  They have since removed it.

Yes, it was a poor decision - but it has been corrected and hopefully they
learned their lesson.  Everyone needs to just move on.
