The Firefox Monitor is not a telemetry study. It's this:

This extension is listed under about:debugging.. the same place where you'll see other features like Pocket, Form Autofill, and Firefox Screenshots.

It's a new Firefox feature. It's not alarming, and it's not Firefox installing things without your permission.

Complaining about this is literally complaining that the new version you just installed has a new feature. If a new version didn't change anything, they wouldn't need a new version.
