every time I pick up one of my kids' iPods I am shocked by the number of push notifications on their lock screen. Most games come with super-mega-push ads ON by default.
Wait, there are games who put ads into notifications? Holy shit, that would be immediate uninstall-and-nuke plus scathing review for me.
Yeah man, I recently uninstalled a game and left a one-star review for pushing me a "reminder" to play because something or other was probably "missing" me, you know that sort of thing. Not sure if you're talking about this or actual third-party advertisement being pushed. I don't know if this is somehow okay for some people now, but I grew up desktop gaming and this is bizarre to me and generates in me vaguely old-person thoughts and fear about how the norms may be changing now against my favor. But at least I can change things on my own phone and I like it when applications speak when spoken to ... technology is becoming impertinent. :P
