Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop
-
That is the photo Barbara Streisand attempted to have removed from the internet, the effeft gets its name from this event and photo.
-
Hey, you might want to team up with Sony...
-
We need legislation against the unending encroachment upon our daily lives by advertisers.
-
"Speed", but instead of a vehicle exploding, it's to avoid ads.
-
A bicyce at this point.
-
Right, but... what does it have to do with Jeeps showing in-car advertisements?
-
Is this real?? Do you have the source?
-
I bought a 2025 Kia Sportage before the new Trumpflation taxes went into effect. No ads at all. I would have been pretty damn mad to see ads. Weird that Jeep has decided to self destruct.

I highly recommend Mazda if this is something you care about. I had a 2016 Mazda 3, and now I have a 2022 Mazda 3. The infotainment is all controlled though a physical knob and buttons, the climate control is all physical buttons. I am not sure if the screen is even a touch screen... I don't think it is, but I have never attempted to touch it since I was so used to using the physical knob system in my old 2016. The physical buttons are why I picked my current 3 turbo up over the WRX I also tested. The WRX and the other Subaru's I checked out all annoyed me with forcing use of the touch screen snd buttons to change the climate settings. I hope Mazda never changes that aspect of their cars. Not sure if the other models also do this, but I don't see why they would.

Turns out regulations are good for businesses.
-
Also, the climate control is all on smaller screen that just displays info with the climate system. The infotainment has nothing to do with the climate controls.
-
Yeah, like that's gonna do anything...
-
Holy shit. Luigi.

Regulations are definitely excellent for both businesses and consumers in the long term. But businesses are often too stupid to see past ANYTHING "quarterly".

Part of me is annoyed that I didn't get a Mazda 3 when I got my car back in 2023, I got a 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV Hatchback.
I like the Leon, but it has so much touch controls.
The worst is the controls for the fog lights, heated rear window and defrost.
They are all located on a small touch panel to the right of the steering wheel, it is also angled down making it harder to see.
So if I am driving and the windows start to fog up I need to take my eyes off the road and aim my finger to touch the correct button without touching any other controls as I might be blinding other drivers.
It is a terrible design.
The AC and battery management screens are all under different submenus on the infotainment screen.
The rest of the car is great though, and so far i have not seen any ads on the screen.

I heard the new 2025 model wallops you in the bollocks every time you pull the parking brake.

Self-destructing is their key feature.
