Not cool, Google, not cool...

Seems like Google/gmail has a new way of advertising, ads directly in your mailbox:



Ironic, they're so good at letting you filter out spam, then they add their own spam in its place.

Grumble, mumble.

You might be opted into Adblock's setting that allows "unobtrusive" ("they gave us money") advertising. If that isn't the case, you may be able to set a custom filter to remove those. I couldn't tell you exactly how, though, since I switched to uBlock Origin some time back.

Oh ho ho! You're right, that's checked! Either it somehow got checked or it slipped through since I got my new machine (unlikely, it's been months now).


Thanks!
