Get rid of third party advertising

Status: Acknowledged

For the heck of it, I decided to search for COVID 19 test on the Best Buy website to see what would come up. Sure enough I saw what I was searching for, however at the bottom of the page, it says similar products outside of Best Buy. I'm not sure why Best Buy has third party ads to begin with and it would be nice to see a clean, distraction free experience without seeing third party advertising. It often leads to browser peformance issues in my opinion.

Because it is huge money.  Cost BB almost nothing to allow it, but they get paid for every click. 

 

Then again are you use a browser other than Chrome or Edge or Mozilla. 

 

I did the exact same search and I get nothing like that.

 

It may be a browser issue. I switched to EDGE and nothing, just a little ad for Bowflex.
