omg i miss that term so much!
a few days ago, i looked up hamburger buns recipe in google search and got very frustrated by the websites i got back.
one page immediately triggered my laptop fan and pushed my CPU to the max. it was playing a video completely unrelated to the recipe i came for. one page showed so much ads that there was a tiny little space left for the recipe. one another page, scrolling was broken by an ad and i had to turn off javascript and images to make that page function at all.
all that time, i was thinking about the non tech-savvy person who was just looking for a recipe. these shenanigans are extreme against that group of people because we hackers would immediately raise strong voices.
that, made me feel bad.
