you install firefox and launch it for the first time. immediately, a page with google analytics opens up and google gets to fingerprint your browser and hardware before you've had a chance to implement any privacy measures.

I find it rather unlikely that mozilla needs GA on that page, considering that firefox is sending tons of telemetry to their own servers.
