Reddit users thevincentasteroid and MMD3_ posted about an auto-playing video ad (with sound) on the home screen. The ad is for Chicken Tender Wraps from Carl’s Jr. When it begins auto-playing, it pushes all the other UI elements out of focus and goes almost full-screen, returning to the home screen after it has played through once.
Some of us live in reality and some of us accept advertisements in products you paid for. 🤷
Whether or not you care about ads doesn’t have any bearing on what is, and isn’t, misinfo.
I don’t like ads either and use piholes on my network.
Doesn’t change the fact the news article is misinformation, plain and simple.
