Apple is selling ads on its iAd platform, developers can opt to display them in apps to receive a percentage.

that used to be the case, but they discontinued iAd [1] about 7 years ago

I'm old enough now to have both been:

- the person rushing to comment about Apple because there's no way Apple would ever do that

- the person complaining about clearly rushed and motivated comments denying something obvious about Apple

i'm not denying anything. the comment i replied to stated that developers can use iAd to "display [ads] in apps to receive a percentage", which i pointed out is no longer the case.

in no way does my comment deny that there's other ads sold by apple (there are, obviously, e.g. app store search ads), but that's a completely separate issue from the specific iAd program the parent comment was talking about.

Ok, thank you
