Not disclosing advertisements runs afoul of the FTC's rules.

This is exactly why I haven’t updated the app in months. I don’t see all the shitty changes, my Twitter is still Twitter and I can easily block all the advertisements.

why not just stop using twitter?

I don't allow automatic updates for apps because I've seen updates break things that were entirely functional too many times so now I only update if something is already broken...

So, I don't see any of this crap either... And I do occasionally get interesting notifications from it.

But, I'm still getting closer and closer to just ditching it every time I see crap like this.
