    A lot of websites use the same type of place like squarespace or WordPress. nd they use the same (or very very similar) layouts, colors, plugins and everything, for typically inexpensive prices. So you get a lot of same looking websites with similar ad placements, with similar ads and same articles. I mean there is an ongoing lawsuit with a “media company” that has like 200 websites that shovel out qanon lite news articles, that seem reputible because they’re named like “The Akron gazette” and “The Tampa articles” sound good, are bad. It’s just shitty people exploiting things, and we the average user suffer, while the below average suffer suffers more because they use all those ass sites, telling others, that it is the way.
