Mozilla is also taking anti-fingerprinting action, but that's separate from this. see: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Fingerprinting


Well credit where it's due, the anti-fingerprinting is actually a TOR project. The project you linked to is an attempt to bring TOR's protections into the mainline Firefox browser. Obviously TOR has more stringent goals than Firefox so many privacy features are currently hidden behind the `privacy.resistFingerprinting` option in about:config.
