Mozilla actually has (had?) ads in Firefox, right on its default start page.

Right and that has existed long before today. And I can’t find anything in this article suggesting that the start page, or anywhere else, is going to be reallocated towards new ads which is what it sounds like the commenter above me was suggesting.

You can easily turn them off in settings

Opt-out can never be the right answer.

Would you prefer Mozilla to not exist? They’re trying to find revenue streams other than the money they get from Google.
