Apple ‘pauses’ gambling ads after placing them next to kids’ games, addiction recovery apps

APPLE’S EVIL GENIUS PLACEMENT –

Oct. 27, 2022 – The issue got attention on Twitter early Wednesday when an ad for “Jackpot World” appeared as a suggested app below RecoverMe, an app designed to help users recover from a gambling addiction.

A separate user found a horse betting app being advertised on the same page. Other Twitter users caught gambling and sports betting apps suggested below children’s games. Many app developers took to Twitter this week saying they don’t want gambling ads appearing near their apps, regardless of their content.
