Uber ride app has ads in it now on top of data collection, service fees, etc, uber eats also sells sponsored placement, and then the fees and prices now... like what the actual fuck is this? https://s.h4x.club/9Zun85Lj - these people have lost their minds, y'all really gonna drive the business down to 10 loyal customers who you milk to hell and high water? Weird strategy.

Target just started hitting me with completely third party ads right after you press pay in their app.

They have also advertised for the Starbucks in thr Target stores long before when you go to pickup something.

		As someone who has spent their whole career in growth and awareness for business building, I see why people hate ads so much now - personally I love running ads, trying to place a good ad in a good spot for someone who will genuinely appreciate it, it can be very rewarding... but late stage capitalism, aka fervent consumerism, has driven business into a real bad place, it's a shame because business and commerce is pretty fun, better than conquering via killing anyways.
