The support rep has given you wrong informaton. We ask all of our developers to put a notice in the Details page of their app, which APNDroid clearly had posted for all users to see. We also provide an API for developers to build custom opt-in and opt-out for the push notification ads.

Some users give bad ratings to many types of ad units, including rich media ads and full page interstitials. That doesn't mean a developer should avoid them.

Not sufficient. Does the notification showing the ad show which application it's coming from?

As long as you don't implement this, you are being disingenuous.

Not that I really care that much, to be honest: I bet that AirPush will shut down and be completely forgotten in a matter of months.
