Obviously just damage control but they do seem to be “fixing it”. They must’ve accidentally implemented a feature to get and show image from the newest news post (which is often an ad), accidentally tested and vetted that feature, and accidentally pushed it.
Don’t you hate it when there is a bug in your code that magically attracts ads? They just appear without warning or reason.
I hate when I accidently spend months developing an ad feature that gets turned on by accident in my ps5.
