With 26.5, you get ads in #Apple Maps. At least #Apple automatically opts you out of personalized ads. You Can't Turn Ad Display Off, however. ***Thank you Apple for making 26.x a clusterf%%k of bad design, an accessibility disaster, and now an exemplar for #enshittification***(Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs)). When you upgrade to 26.5 and visit Maps, read the Advertising and Privacy link carefully. A good reason NOT to update. Can't tell you truly how disgusted this makes me!

I hope this BADLY damages Apple's reputation.
