Obviously, Google is doing it under the pressure of the regulators. But i don't like this hypocritical rhetoric of "protecting users". Wouldn't it be more useful for users protection not to allow into Google Play Store phishing apps or stealth miners?

Been there and wrecked my previous phone the time before I knew about crypto mining and stuffs. And now I have a debt to pay because it was an installment plan, sad to say it was those stealth miners fault and my ignorance too. Last year I have downloaded an app that was mining secretly and guess what where did it came from? Well from Facebook, someone send me a message and the moment I clicked it was installed and for some reason my PC get laggy, after 2 days the message was deleted saying it was a harmful element lol. The best part is it is automatically sending to every friends that I have in FB and they kept asking me what it was and I all I say it was virus and please don't click. Who among you have experience this? Oh I was just agreeing with LaLegiste in his idea of google being more observant on applications that have malware rather than banning crypto adds.

Indeed! And today personal data flow from Facebook has taken place. Both Google and FB should better concetrate on protecting us from themselves first and then think about crypto related ads imho.

Yes, there is a great possibility that they can do that because all the control for their website is in their hands, but look if they will removed or banned crypto related ads from their site can't they think that millions of people visited their site just to seek crypto related ads or news? its their lost if they will have to that, not only google are the browser on the net and FB as will.
