Apps store ads? They have less data than others, and use it differently, but it’s very much selling access to you, like other types of ads.

- pantulis 6y agoDo you mean ads inside the App Store app itself or ads inside apps downloaded from the AS?
- justapassenger 6y agoSearch ads inside app store. Apple limits amount of data it's using about you, but they use your data to deliver those ads to you. They let you control also using your personal data for it, but they use well known industry dark pattern - you need to opt out. Which is very cynical, given that they force others now to get explicit opt-in from users. Note - I'm not saying that Apple is as bad others. But they totally do use your data to make more money.
