Does Google Inserting Deceptively Placed Ads in the Play Store seem icky to anyone else?
Does Google Inserting Deceptively Placed Ads in the Play Store seem icky to anyone else?
They've started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you're searching for.
This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?
I'm having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.

Working as desiged. The revenue from deceptive ads is higher then relevant ads.
Hearing this week how they purposefully made Google search results worse so that people would be shown more ads feels like another blow as of late. Have you no sense of decency Google #ShakesFistAsAConsumer
