I'm not commenting on implementation itself but rather on how Mozilla went about with an opt-out approach into the collection program (even if it was for testing) to a community they have cultivated with the promise of privacy.

Collecting my data is a big deal. It doesn't matter how it is used. I should at least consent to it.

I feel like this argument is fair enough. I think a pop-up informing the user about it and how to opt out is sufficient.
