Firefox keeps sending telemetry data despite being deactivated

Hi all,

I have stumbled upon an issue. I am running the 111.0 (64-bit) Firefox desktop version and I have deactivated all telemetry options under 'Firefox Data Collection and Use'.

However, the browser keeps attempting to send telemetry data, calling: "incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org", which I have blocked with custom DNS filtering.

I am quite disappointed by this and somewhat perplexed that this is happening given that the browser doesn't seem to be respecting the fact that I disabled all 'Firefox Data Collection and Use' options? Why is this happening and how can I fully deactivate telemetry collection beyond this?
