Yes, and in fairness to them that’s how it has been. The ads are only for stuff sold on the kindle store too, so not like you’re seeing ads for hot singles in your area or some shit on your kindle. It’s only now that the store is flooded with this AI garbage that the ads have become annoying.
I do almost all of my reading on a kindle - one of the ones with ads on the lock screen, and for months now all of the ads have been for this type of no-effort, low-quality, AI-generated garbage. Amazon clearly doesn’t give a fuck as long as they make money.
