Fake News Sites... Are They Ethical
I was browsing the web when a website sneakily bypassed my pop-up blocker and loaded up what looked to be a news website. Now, my experience told me that it was 90% going to be an ad, but then the product it was promoting confirmed this.
I was actually quite torn between my views of this. On one hand, I didn't like the fact that the owner was simulating a news website (which people usually trust without looking too deep into them, they just assume these guys are providing news). The comments are, in my opinion, almost certainly fake although I didn't bother to check.
On the contrary, I was impressed with this tactic because I felt it provided a trustworthy platform for which to redirect traffic to the chosen product. I'm sure a lot of money could be made from this landing page setup.
What are your views on this technique? Would you class this as 'grey hat'?
