i think you missed the point.

Apple is not killing the ads, its killing ads in the browser. Content producers are just going to leave the web and do native apps with ads. On iOS, those ads are controlled by Apple. It's genious.

It's just a shame that the web is a casualty.

I don't think that is true. My understanding is that Apple has certain policies about user tracking. It does not force ads to use iAd or take a cut from ad revenue.

And Google. And any number of ad networks that the developer can choose to use.
