IIRC Techcrunch is owned by Verizon Media, same as advertising.com. Probably the overlords mandating tighter integration.

  > advertising.com they didn't even put in the effort to obscure their platform even a little bit, huh? not even trying to hide it.

    They probably acquired that domain at the time when advertising wasn't an offense.

    "advertising.com" sounds a lot better than "surveillance-and-behavior-modification.com". The term "advertising" has become a euphemism for a much more insidious group of activities which, as it turns out, are useful for advertisement (among other things).
