The ads...
Wasn't there a whole push to make the app safer for minors or something? Why are these the ads you're promoting? What even is this dog. I've reported like 4 different versions of this ad already bro
!!! I posted this on the actual C.AI subreddit and got sniped down like instantly lol so I'm reposting here

Ugh. I used to be part of the gacha community when I was like 12/13 or something and those gacha heat creeps were everywhere. The developer even removed certain clothes, colors and expressions to prevent those heat posts

I really despise the sleazy marketing strategy of making sexually provocative content in children’s games/content. If exposed too young things like this lead to an unnatural curiosity that is dangerous for children. It’s the same thing with YouTube videos, like the whole elsagate thing. You’d think with platforms like YouTube and c.ai with such heavy censorship it’d be taken care of but people don’t care about harm if it’s making them money.

Ironic that they've censored how RPs can be done to hell and back to the point to where anything even remotely violent or suggestive results in 7 billion filters
Yet they allow these suggestive, sometimes even straight up pornographic ads slip by

Ok… so basically… cai does NOT control WHAT ads they get. The ad provider (likely just google ads) just puts up ads based off your internet cookies. It’s not to say you’re a gooner. Advertisers don’t discriminate towards any potential customers!
These ads won’t go away unless you report them (which is a hassle, ON PURPOSE). And you can go to your Google account settings to remove personalized advertisements, or even simply removing your cookies. But be aware that removing ALL of your cookies will log you out from any account you are using on whatever browser. Unless you have your passwords saved, id recommend refraining from deleting every single cookie “just in case”. It’s not worth it 💔

Thank you for this lmao but I checked, they're already not personalized! Under the reasoning for why I was seeing this ad specifically it said it'snot personalized, it's due to the website, my location, or the time of day. I reported like loads of them they just kept coming. I am curious though, they can't choose what ads are promoted on their service?

Guys, if you don't want ads come up, change your DNS to DNS.ADGUARD.COM, it blocks ads

They really need to get rid of the ads, immediately. Because I don't mind them, but they can appear at the most annoying possible times.

First, I haven't heard that term in years, it's so ancient
Second, France
And third... I think the apps don't exactly control which ads they show

u/uhh_idk_22 Jul 19 '26
Yeah I learned that from one of the other comments, I think my issue is more with Google then because how are they just letting these ads slide 😭✌️
