A) That's not a Hyundai. It's AI bullshit.

B) That's not even the FORM FACTOR for a Palisade.

As near as I can tell, it's just clickbait. It will pop up at the bottom of legitimate news articles, just clustered with the rest of the clickbait bullshit.

Making the click so you don't have to...

This ad:

Brings me to this bullshit site. Not clicking any of these...

I like how it just jumps into facts about why it's good for seniors. As if to say "you made it this far, you must be a senior we can scam"

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Some of the ads actually DO reference seniors. Not that I've ever seen a senior discount on a new car sale...

I should say too, although Hyundai seems to be popping up a lot today, I've seen similar fake Jeep and Toyota ads too.

My mind is blown! So if I have it right, they pay to put up ads to some useless bullshit site on theirs so that they can have copious amounts of additional ads for unsuspecting visitors to view?

I feel like I'm getting something wrong here.

It's true! The links on the bullshit page appear to be affiliate links to the manufacturer.
