This is just completely untrue.

There have never been third party ads in any default application on MacOS or iOS and I feel completely confident saying that.

You could make an argument of upselling, the music app prods your for a subscription to Apple Music or to buy songs on itunes- you could argue Apple TV shows content from providers you’re not subscribed to (next to ones which you are)- but those are first and second party ads.

That's what I mean.

But ads are ads.

I guess I see a difference because the BBC does not show ads except for itself. So ads are not sold.
