A user reported that the line on https://www.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/new/, "Faites ce que vous avez à faire en ligne.
navigateur Firefox ne vous épie jamais." should be "Faites ce que vous avez à faire en ligne.
Le navigateur Firefox ne vous épie jamais." The "Le" should be added to the beginning of the 2nd sentence in the tag line.

I believe the string ID is firefox-desktop-download-do-what-you-do which is here:

firefox-desktop-download-do-what-you-do = Faites ce que vous avez à faire en ligne.<br> { -brand-name-firefox-browser } ne vous épie <strong>jamais</strong>.

I don't personally speak French, I'm just reporting what was reported to me.

I do speak french natively and can confirm. The sentence should be "Le navigateur Firefox ne vous épie jamais".
It looks like the translation might have worked correctly if the original sentence had been:
"The Firefox browser isn't watching" or "Firefox isn't watching"

I fixed it on Smartling: https://ti.smartling.com/app/b81dc4cef?locale=fr-FR&start=0&stringIds=cc875a9993ee7d5bc7a03a17b4d9eb86&stringIdsOrdering=true&workflowStepUids=0611996c8201, but somehow it is not syncing up with the repo. I will report the sync issue to Smartling team. Could be slow due to holiday break.

Confirm that the issue is fixed. The cron job was off earlier.
