Given that the number and types of pings change, I am now required to keep 
track of various pings and how they change over time to protect my privacy. 
This isn't something I expect from a "product" which claims to be actively 
working to protect the privacy of users irrespective of their nationality, .... 
(Please note that I trust Mozilla but I *don't* trust Amazon)

If a single pref/button can disable all such pings and submissions, it would be 
a huge improvement over the current situation (I would imagine that this would 
be a requirement for things such as Tor Browser)

Telemetry/FHR unification project introduces a persistent UUID per profile. It 
isn't clear whether this UUID will be re-used for other purposes or other 
pings. I would rather disable all such pings and submissions than keep track of 
which combination of them is safe.
