Article says "Despite the fact that these topmost search results were outlined in an orange box and labelled with the word "Ad,""
which is odd because I can't remember the last time I saw ads outlined in a box. They used to have a different background color. It was quite clear that the ad results were something different. Now all you get is this tiny little box that says "Ad". It's quite easy to miss.
- e12e 11y agoReading the full report, it's pretty clear that it's just the word "Ad" that's in a box (and I'd call it yellow, not orange, maybe my screen settings are off). I had to dig up a browser I don't use, and so doesn't have ad-block - but Google (in English) does indeed add a small box with "Ad" next to (some) sponsored results: http://cubeupload.com/im/y24qHx.png http://cubeupload.com/im/y24qHx.png (I had to upload this a few times, as I couldn't readily find any image host that wasn't both free, didn't require login/registering, and didn't wrap the image in some kind of web page -- even after years of using an ad-blocker, my mind refuses to "see" any box/region marked as an ad... The image is the square with the text "Trainers - up to 60% off ..." in it ;-)
