Mark my words, Apple is going to go full enshittification in the next 5 years because they've squeezed every last drop out of hardware pricing. Especially with the failed Apple Intelligence that they will now have to pay their way out of.
Then what do i move to? No linux laptop feels as good to touch as the aluminum macbooks, and in terms of phones it can't get any worse than the ads-and-trackers shitshow that is android...

Exactly. Why did the article author think ads weren't scams before they were "AI" generated?
Where does the author claim or even remotely suggest that?

They'll look good, work well (from hardware perspective), and you can replace their built-in Windows OS with the Linux flavor/edition of your choice.
By the way, if ultraportable is your idea of laptop nirvana, you can try... Samsung made awesome AI-powered laptops (the Samsung Galaxy Book5 and Book6), I got the Book5 few months back for my friend's son. It is sleek, lightweight and powerful.

I'll load up Facebook right now and get the same things. Google? The same.
And to no surprise, ads like these break Apple's ad content guidelines[1].
OP should figuratively put down the video camera and go perform CPR. Report the Ad. Make the internet a better place.

This is true of all news sites, some hearing aid, you wont believe, why your pet does X etc etc
A lot of scams and cons are deliberately stupid looking and absurd to pre-select for gullible marks.
It’s also why goofy conspiritainment shows are loaded with ads for quack medicines. Anyone who thinks we didn’t go to the moon will probably buy herbal dick pills.
It’s a bit like that MSN page what MS is forcing on millions through Edge and W11 widgets
Why does it even exist, this MSN page, which is ridden with nonsense...? I don't get it.

Vote with your wallet and buy an Android phone without ads and trackers? What is this FUD?
This is a bit silly. Are there any ads that people do trust?
> Are there any ads that people do trust? What? Yes, of course. Are you so terminally online that you assume all advertising is the fake AI chum that we see on the web?
