Aren't all of those sites just more adverts masquerading as information?
That's the biggest problem, can't even get straight data and ads separately. Now the articles are the ads, and SEO/adspace has made search results even less useful.
Comments are the ads now too.
Yeah especially with LLM models, now you can automate your shills.
(Not important, but the M in LLM is "Model")
