On another note, what is the deal with all the websites these days having ads of pictures of glistening intestines, necrotic sores on feet, drawings of “the largest cyst known to man, watch the pus being drained in this alarming video.”?

You're probably being "fed" ads tailored specifically to your personal preferences, based upon your browsing history.

You're right! I decided to do a test. In this original story at the Post, there was an ad with pictures of a prostate and "Do this immediately if you have prostatic," which is why I asked the question on this thread. So, I copied the link of the article and opened in a Firefox private window and that ad was gone as well as a whole lot of other junk. Thank you very much! I'm going private window from now on.
