I sometimes find the things being advertised interesting. Not because I want to buy them but rather things being pushed and who pushes them can help stay abreast of what's happening in the world. A specific example from a little while ago in my life--I saw an article advertisement for Microsoft's sovereign cloud offering. I thought this was interesting because I think the Internet is balkanizing over time and how megacorps try to play in that scenario interests me. I still don't know that it qualifies as news, to your point, but Amazon involvement, however incidental, in Mullvad is a datapoint I'm glad to have.
