> it's all about framing My pet peeve are the news snippets in Google Discover or Google News, which then lead to a paywalled article. From my point of view these snippets are all ads for the newspaper or magazine which is promoting them by giving Google access to index them. One could argue that they are not actively promoting their articles, that it is Google who is "stealing" the content and publishing it, but then again, they want to be monetized through the "Leistungsschutzrecht" (Ancillary copyright for press publishers), so they are well aware that having their articles indexed is beneficial to them. They might as well add a robots.txt file, which is respected by Google. They are also formatting their articles in such a way, that the snippets are as attractive as possible, which becomes obvious when you read an article and have the feeling that you're reading 3 times the same content until you get to the real information. These snippets are clearly ads and Google should have to label them as such, unless the content is free-to-view.
