HN baited by karma farmers once again.

Here's the /r/assholedesign post: https://old.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/1ow6cpu/appa...

It shows a webpage with an ad being displayed in the browser app.

How do we know?

Full-screen ads don't show on the cover screen (home screen).

Here's the investigation:

>Any ad shown would be limited to the cover screen widget, which displays news, weather, and calendar events.

>The ad shown in the Reddit photo is of the fridge’s Samsung Internet app. Through that, an ad seems to have shown up organically through a third-party website.

Here's the docs that talk about ads on the cover screen:

It's easy for ragebait to short-circuit your critical thinking skills.

Don't let Redditards like /u/Shellnanigans get their fix.
