It's not in the linked article, but it was part of it in the beta release notes. Now it's on the dedicated Android release notes page ():
- Firefox for Android can now be set as the default PDF reader.
- Firefox for Android now supports enabling Global Privacy Control. With this feature, Firefox informs websites that the user doesn’t want their data to be shared or sold. This feature is enabled by default in private browsing mode and can be enabled in normal browsing in Settings → Enhanced Tracking Protection -> Tell websites not to share & sell data toggle.
- To reduce user fingerprinting information and the risk of some website compatibility issues, the OS version is now always reported as "Android 10" in Firefox for Android's User-Agent string.

Global Privacy Control
Isn't this basically the "Do Not Track" thing, so it basically just gives websites more information about you? I guess allowing feature parity between private and non-private mode helps reduce that though.
I don't trust websites to respect that setting whatsoever.
On the note, your final bullet point is awesome. Give websites as little information as possible.
