Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 I'm working on a patch for this. Question: Does it make sense to add a
 preference to turn on and off Date locale anonymization? Or is there
 another existing pref I should use? If we need a new pref, should it be
 called something like `privacy.javascript.anonymize`?
