All ads are scams. Some are worse than others.

In the 1980's TV ads in Uruguay were really simple. Some were just a static bi-colour image of a shoe or a coat, some text, and a voice would say "buy shoes at such shop at such address".

I guess that was at the same time the low point of marketing and also its most honest stage.

uBlockOrigin and Pihole. I refuse to use the internet without them. Ads are a cancer. Not just on the internet, but in general.
