Adverts I hate - NOT amateur radio

Not sure if this a recent thing, but I am seeing more and more ads that say something like, "UK seniors over 50 are rushing to get this new....".

They are written in such a way that your interest is raised, so you are tempted to take a look. Whenever I see this I do not look. Although most are probably virus free, they are clickbate. Personally I hate these.

Roger,

What are these "adverts" of which you speak? I run UBlock Origin and Privacy Badger, and see virtually none.

They are all over the place! I see them on Cambridgeshire Live as well as in many other places.
