Add Twitter mobile to your home screen. For me, it's exactly the same experience. Actually it's better! I don't get notifications about who to follow or some person tweeted or retweeted something!

Joke's on their advertisers, since I can hardly be the only person who routinely blocks promoted tweets.

I have “Limit Ad Tracking” turned on. Apparently it prevented Apps from collecting the list of applications on my iOS Devices.<p>I also enable “Opt out of interest-based ads” on my Android Devices.

At this point, I don&#x27;t believe it&#x27;s possible to be in favor of civil liberties and work with contextual advertising.

I can understand Android lets the app do that, because well, Android is Android, but... iOS too?!

Not 100% sure, but I think the facebook App does something similar.
