This article/headline is wrong. I'm the reporter for the Daily Dot, I received the email this article is based on. They just said they won't share right now.

Here you go, since this site didn't quote the email, read it for yourself:

Update 8:15am ET, Sept. 30: In an email to the Daily Dot, a Mozilla spokesperson emphasized the organization's "long-standing relationship" with the Tor Project, but would not confirm or deny possible Tor integration into Firefox.

“Mozilla and the Tor Project share many of the same values and goals, such as building user trust in the Web and giving users more capabilities to navigate the Web on their own terms. We have a long-standing relationship with the Tor Project and regularly discuss ways we might collaborate to strengthen the open Web and deliver a better browsing experience for Firefox users, but have no specific projects to share at this time.”

Moreover, here's a tweet that makes the idea seem more possible.

I'm not surprised. It would probably take a lot of work to integrate it correctly.
