Apple has dumped ad blockers that block in-app ads from the App Store

Apple has removed ad blocking apps from its App Store that block ads in other apps, citing privacy concerns.

--

One app, Been Choice, which is part of Apple’s sweep, claimed it could even block ads in apps in Apple News, which would interfere with a small but growing revenue source for the Cupertino-based company. It also claimed to be the first to block ads in the Facebook app.
Google doesn’t allow apps in its Play Store that interfere with other apps’ functionality. In 2013 it removed ad blockers including Adblock Plus from the Play Store.
