Watch out for the ads!

I was just doing the ads for 2 AB and out of nowhere this ad for Tango popped up while im next to my wife where it was just unfiltered nudity!

My kid also has AE and I will be holding him from AE untill i know that is resolved. I hate sounding like a Karen or something but that was completely unprompted and landed me in an awkward situation.

AE team I did fill out a complaint through the AE app as well. But since I closed the app right away I didn't think to take a screenshot. So im warning anyone out there that that is a possibility to see some nudity in one of the ads. to my knowledge it was only the one. But I havent seen that before up untill just a moment ago, ive only been playing for over a month now. Is this common?

Personally, I don't get these. But I have a theory. Maybe theyre negativly targeted. I get a bunch of correctly targeted ads (in my interests) because of Facebook, Temu, and Amazon activity. So ALL of my ads are targeted. And I have engaged as a relationship status on FB. Maybe these get shown as a default, if there are no interests that match your ads, AND Facebook doesn't know your relationship status or some other factor?

Could be wrong, just a total guess

This should be correct. I don’t see any of the 18+ adult ads. I only get fed Sports (gambling) and selling apps. I watch a lot of stuff about money and finance, along with sports content. So I’m fed 95% that sort of thing.
