Once you create a monetization team that puts ads in shit, they’re going to want to keep putting more ads in stuff. They’re all judged on how much better they do year over year.

Apple should’ve never created a team that sold ads on their platforms.

Why not? If stupid users are willing to accept it, the business is obligated to do it.

It's the world we've built for ourselves.

Mmmmm, corpo defense via victim blaming. You love to see it.

Next up, Microsoft is obligated to install 24/7 spyware on all ststems because tech incompetent users don't know how to use anything else.

Since users are proud to accept and defend their abuse, they should get more of it.

Nothing will change until useful idiots recognize their contributions to the problem.
