What bothers me is when I Google "Pepsi" and item #1 is a Pepsi ad, item #2 is Pepsi's website.

It's obvious what I wanted, neither I nor Pepsi are happy about that ad being there...

Freakonomics had a episode one time about this very thing (and some other stuff in online advertising), using eBay as a case study. They were buying ads on the term "eBay". Presumably Pepsi is doing the same thing.
