      “they put ads in the terminal” isn’t really accurate.

      Their “ubuntu-advantage-tools” adds information to one of their other products to the output of apt. You can easily get rid of that by uninstalling/replacing “ubuntu-advantage-tools”. It’s definitely not like they are selling ad space in your terminal to third parties.

        You can’t easily uninstall the advantage tools package, they set Ubuntu-minimal meta package to depend on it
