> A year or two ago my iPhone started showing ads for Kentucky Friend Chicken on the home screen.
Please, elaborate. Because this sounds like a very thin slice of the whole story. Where in the Home Screen? How did it show up? Notification? Live activity? Automatically installed app? SMS?
iOS, regrettably, features ads in some places, but I have never seen (or heard about) any of it showing up on the Home Screen by itself and I cannot even fathom HOW that would play out since the only for information to show up in the Home Screen is through widgets, and those have to be put there, or they are shown “intelligently” (notice the quotes there) on smart stacks IF you have the “suggest widgets” thingie enabled—but then again this would mean you have the KFC app installed on your phone and you use it rather frequently so I don’t think it would classify as an ad in any valid way.
Speaking from personal experience, this is consistent with multiple doctors over the years recommending high-protein, low carb diets. (Clarification: low does not mean no carb.)
I don't understand people freaking out over this - outside of a purely political reflex - hell hath no fury like taking away nerds' Mountain Dew and Flamin' Hot Cheetos.
Nor do I understand the negative reactions to new restrictions on SNAP - candy and sugary drinks are no longer eligible.
