The affinity of halide anions to the water/oil interface is investigated using molecular dynamics 
simulations effectively accounting for polarization effects by an electronic continuum correction, 
which is practically realized via rescaling of the ionic charges. This simple and computationally 
efficient correction to non-polarizable simulations is suited for electronically homogeneous media 
and we show that it works well also for the water/oil interface, which exhibits practically no 
electronic discontinuity. Consequently, for this interface the current simulations give interfacial 
affinities of halide anions which are consistent with experiment and previous explicitly polarizable
 calculations. For the water/vapor interface, however, the present method overestimates the anionic 
surface affinities, which can be traced back to the abrupt change in the electronic part of the 
relative permittivity upon moving from the liquid to the gas phase.
