You can also turn off personalized ads for the App Store, Apple News, and Stocks: https://support.apple.com/en-us/105131

That doesn't disable ads, it just means the ads won't be "personalized".

For example you'll see general interest news ads, instead of ads targeted at the things you are interested in.

Yeah I know. Never said different.

Which to be fair is the issue, the issue isn't the ads it's the tracking. That can be disabled without much work.
