The title had me thinking they had actual adverts open to advertisers. It's not, just someone winging about apple advertising icloud+ and some other stuff in their settings app where you can directly enable it. Come on you lot, this is fine, it's like the least ad driven mainstream commercial platform.
They show a notification for that, which is super annoying.
The App Store app is filled with ads. The search in particular shows 2 full screen height ads now before results.
No, it’s not fine.
Apple Maps now has ads... er, sorry, "preferred listings".
The least crap of the crap is not a laudable position. I’m a big Apple fan but they need to stop this shit with advertising. The amount of advertising built in to a $1,000+ device, including ads for the device maker’s own services, should be exactly zero.
