Is this also true for Debian-based distributions? Anyways, users on Mac and Windows usually download Firefox directly from Mozilla and are therefore affected by the aforementioned telemetry.

Seeing the market share of Desktop Linux I'd hazard a guess that those users are in the majority.

Guess nope, 'cause Mozilla doesn't allow patching at all.

Edit: tried to download debian package to check their patches, but failed: https://packages.debian.org/sid/firefox

So proofs are welcoming.

Debian's Firefox is patched.
