Thus, the answer turns in whether any Firefox binaries are used or distributed with LibreWolf. On the LibreWolf website, I don’t even see any binaries for LibreWolf that they host, except the Windows binary. For all other OS, they refer to that OS’s package manager. But even still, there is nothing to suggest that any Mozilla-compiled binaries are in LibreWolf, which only has source code commonality with Mozilla Firefox.
You can’t put terms of service on a web page and bind people to it. Otherwise I could put up a site somewhere and say everyone who reads this owes me a dollar.
The terms are only enforceable when they are presented to the user before they use the software. My copy of Librewolf doesn’t present any terms to me so I am not bound by anything other than the redistribution license.
IANAL but all this is pretty common sense. You can’t add terms by posting them where the user wouldn’t see them. And Librewolf explains very clearly that it is not Firefox and is not a Mozilla product.

The answer appears to be: no.
That is interesting. I wonder if it applies to the Debian package, which debian.org presumably compiles.
