Of course, Mozilla would never do any such thing, right?  Oh wait, they
added Website Advertising Preferences aka PPA (Privacy-Preserving
Attribution) as their scheme to help advertisers acquire statistics on
the effectiveness of their ad campaigns.

If enabled, the hopefully anonymized user data gets collected at Anonym
where it then gets sent to the advertisers.

Mozilla is also trying to help advertisers survive, so the Web survives.
All those resources cost money.  If Mozilla loses their $510M bribe from
Google, this project could languish and die.  Of course, Mozilla could
charge the advertisers for enrollment at Anonym.  Whoa, then you'd have
to be claiming Mozilla is just like Brave, and making money at it.  With
the Google revenue influx, Mozilla will have to make some hard financial
decisions of what of them survives.
