Add a preference to disable using TAAR in Discopane.  Emanuela is providing the UX.

For reference here is the latest design for how prefs will handle Disco-TAAR opt-out/in:

https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/EXO4XHKMD6Z#/screens/325542844

From my PM perspective, this pref UX is good to go, but Emanuela should confirm. (The new element is the checkbox and copy for "Allow Firefox to make personalized extension recommendations" ... The "Learn more" link will go to a SUMO page that is not live yet, though being drafted.)

If we want to open about:preferences from AMO content I wrote a patch to add support for it on mozAddonManager [1]. Not sure if that's what we want to do but if we go that route this might be a good start.

yes, I can confirm.
String: Allow Firefox to make personalized extension recommendations

For reference, I'm also attaching the screen.

Note: there is a possibility I will add the actual pref in bug 1489531.
The pref, browser.discovery.enabled, landed with bug 1489531.  It is false until this bug adds the UI, so the patch here should change the pref to true.
Is the SUMO page ready now?

> Is the SUMO page ready now?

The copy is ready, however the SUMO page itself has not been produced/published. Can you proceed without a specific link, or is that a blocker?

It would be good to have the SUMO page up, at least as a placeholder. The page normally has a short name that we can use in product, like https://support.mozilla.org/1/firefox/%VERSION%/%OS%/%LOCALE%/extension-recommendations. If you can set that up that'd be cool, in the past I've asked jsavage if you don't have access.
