What’s the deal with the Google ad that shows a legit URL but takes users to another? That seems like the biggest issue here and the article just rolls past it like that’s totally normal.

Ads should have to pass some kind of manual review process / “sanity check” to prevent nonsense like this. SMH google.

Meanwhile over at google.

We’re restricting extension api because “malware” and disabling ublock.

At this point, Google is the virus.
