The linked page for ads on maps says "Coming soon". He didn't cut it off, so looks like he'll be complicit in the enshitification

    • And the CEO in waiting doesn't have power to stop this shit here and now, just because his official placement would be in a a few months?

      Much more likely the same shit will continue under him.
