Firefox app on android. Never seen this before until today. But Firefox is now putting ads in the app?

I think those have been there since forever?

This should be towards the top. I've been on FF4A for years now and they've had those links there the whole time. You can toggle them off if yku don't want them.

how many people see that page tho? when i open a new tab i don't even see the page, I open new pages quite often, all i see is the address bar until i type and hit enter. never even saw the "sponsored content"

You must have changed an option, by default the page shows up every time you open a new tab. (Though you can disable the ads on it)

I have wonderful tunnel vision. I opened a new tab and actually looked at the page and they do in fact exist, I have 3 sponsored links, I just never actually look at the page until i hit enter cause there is nothing of interest til then hehe
