Users of X are complaining about the increasing number of low-quality ads on the platform, including promotions for AI "undressing" apps and questionable cryptocurrency services. Experts believe this decline in ad quality is a result of larger advertisers leaving the platform. The exodus of major advertisers has left X reliant on smaller, less reputable ad buyers. These ads violate X's terms of service and are spreading across the internet, potentially being used for sextortion and targeted harassment campaigns. The situation is exacerbated by CEO Elon Musk's controversial actions and the subsequent loss of trust from mainstream advertisers. X is now facing a significant decline in ad revenue and struggling to attract advertisers.
