A few days ago, on my years old Firefox 35 profile, I received a Sponsored Tile. It was for the Mozilla Manifesto, and was clearly marked by the "Sponsored" tag. My concern is that we were initially promised that users existing tiles would be respected, and sponsored tiles would only show up for brand new users with no established history. That's clearly not the case in this profile. Never-mind that it is a Mozilla-sponsored tile, we need to respect users and not change their existing tiles experience.

Bug 1124045 is the same except for Firefox for Android tile
