Chosen solution

This new extension disables Private Browsing, hides all the PB menu items and disables the keyboard controls, disables the clearing of browsing history, and the extension doesn't appear in the Add-ons except for the Firefox SafeMode.

I noticed that I can't disable this add-on and it isn't hidden like anticipated. How could I disable this add-on and enable private browsing again if I had to?

You can disable that extension in the Firefox SafeMode.
