Soon the only private option left will be to curl the website, read the html and picture it in my head.

Are there any specifics about this? It all seems fairly theoretical to me. What do they [want to] do that contradicts "doesn't sell your personal data" within the context of the fluid definition of "sell"? Do they sell my personal data or don't they? What definitions of "sell" are relevant here?
It's all sounding a bit Bill Clinton to me: "it depends on your definition of 'is'."
One thing to keep in mind is thar mozilla is now an ad company and can use this data itself for whatever advertising it wants to sell, so they dont even need a third party they can just sell targeted ads directly to companies while not technically "sharing" the info they gather to anyone.
Basically, why sell the data to other people when you can profit from using it directly?
The ambiguity is the smoking gun.
Now that Mozilla's fucked. What's the next option that's not Chromium?
Librewolf, degoogled chromium, private windows. If you don't want your data to be sold, don't give out your data.
It do be a slippery slope though
