You know how a lot of commercial websites use incredibly shitty ads, with scam solar programs, hot women who are supposedly judges in your area, etc? I just saw another gem. Screenshot of what I got:
Ain't clicking on the bait to find out what CT college they're referring to, because y'all can see how that's a photo from our campus, in Amherst MA.
I actually wonder what that script would do if I was in another part of the country/world. It seems to have successfully geolocated me in CT, and changed the text accordingly, but it served an image of the wrong state. If I was in FL, would it say "Florida College..."? But would it still serve up an image of the snowbound UMass campus?
