On mobile that may be the case, but on desktop you can definitely install extensions not signed by Mozilla

only until restart.
to load unsigned extensions persistently, you must use nightly or developer edition and enable a hidden config flag.

Without a nightly or dev version I'm running bypass paywalls clean from github, persistently on the latest Firefox desktop release. I do not believe it's signed by Mozilla, but I could be wrong

Only reasonable explanation I can come up with is that I installed it before this requirement was made and my install is grandfathered in
