This is related to the link but not the article.

I saw that the address was forbes.com. Ok, Forbes, that's a legit publication. Then I clicked. First there is a full page advertisement with no content. The I clicked again to continue to the actual article. On the second page, the actual article is the bottom left corner of the screen- making up about 25% of the page.

Its time to get your paradigm shift on ya'll. This form of advertising is dying as its effectiveness is wearing off. Humans are immune. If you want to continue tricking people into buying things they dont need and cant afford, you are going to need to develop new methods.
