Technically harmless - data reporting is disabled so only a rogue obsolete message tied with our rename from Mozilla to Purism (as per Mozilla trademark guidelines) - but bad user experience nevertheless.

Thanks for reporting!

This issue should be fixed by now (since 52.9.0esr-1pureos2 released to landing on July 6th).

@d3vid could you please confirm that this issue is solved?
