    Where is everyone getting the ads? And why don’t I have them? Not that I want them, but I own two Shields and neither has ads on the homescreen.

      I was getting “suggestions” to install apps for streaming platforms like Disney or hbo which I had to scroll past before I could start the apps I installed myself.

      Maybe you’re on a different firmware version from me.
