I didn't know where to bring this up. At this point it just feels like remote code execution. I filed an issue on PowerShell's github page. Please support me, maybe I can make my voice heard. I am tired of stuff like this. Notifications here and there, ads here and there.

I have been anoyed with my Android apps for a while now since every other update seems to change the UI randomly, I thought my shell was safe. This is not a desired piece of information, it is simply remote code execution. Somebody runs software on my computer and I don't get to decide what it is. I had Microsoft Teams installed, and now my shell is showing ads. If it wasn't for steam and photoshop, I wouldn't even run windows. So tired of your s*, Microsoft.

This response feels very hyperbolic to me.

I can barley call this an ad, especially since the subject of the ad is free, open source and a successor product to the current one.

Canonical has been doing this for ages now.
When?

They have a link to Amazon (it's not even an app, just a link) and that's about it.

* Kata Containers are now fully integrated in Charmed Kubernetes 1.16! Yes, charms take the Krazy out of K8s Kata Kluster Konstruction.

 * Canonical Livepatch is available for installation.

"ads" as in recommending you get the next version of poweshell?

Not a huge thing of your ask me.

It’s not really what I’d expect from a command line tool, quite the opposite in fact.
