This looks like either a bug in the platform or people with Premium Lite. The article made no attempt at investigating this because all they did was to reprint complaints from anonymous people on Reddit. Customer support offering boilerplate reply about why someone is seeing ads sounds like par for the course here because it’s all either LLM chatbots or people in third world countries who couldn’t care less.

I just can’t take an article complaining about ads seriously when it’s that peppered with ads …

They are “complaining” (more like reporting) about ads for people who paid to not have any.

Do you have a subscription with this media company?
