Heh heh heh... Apple religious zealots (aka Apple trolls) are in denial.

What kind of strange person does what they just did?
They brazenly lied that Apple doesn't serve them any ads on iOS.

What kind of strange misfit flatly denies what even Apple doesn't deny?
Apple serves them ads all the time on iOS.
 <https://ads.apple.com/app-store/help/ad-placements/0081-ad-placement-options>

Apple's own public documents (which the Apple trolls never read) clearly
say that Apple uses information from your activity within their own apps
(like App Store searches, downloaded apps, and the types of stories you
read in Apple News) to create "segments" & to deliver relevant ads. 
 <https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/data/en/apple-advertising/>

Apple even has an advertisement server engine built into the iOS device for
God's sake. It is called "Apple Ads" (formerly called "Apple Search Ads").

Yet the Apple trolls are so *desperate* to claim some kind of "magical"
superiority over Android that they brazenly lie to claim Apple lied.

Who does that?
What kind of religious-zealot misfit does what these Apple trolls do?

There's even an SKAdNetwork (StoreKit Ad Network) built into iOS for
Heaven's Sake! SKAdNetwork provides postbacks (data reports) to ad networks
and advertisers based on the clicks iOS users do within infected apps.

Anyway, I didn't bring in the Apple kooks on this thread; they brought
themselves in but what is important for normal intelligent people is....

Apple religious zealots have always (for decades!) been this strange way.

The instant an Apple Usenet newsgroup is involved, the discussion for
decades has *always* instantly devolved to their religious zealotry.

And yet, they have no idea Apple put an ad engine on their iPhones.
