It's interesting: they're so helpful and welcome that I barely consider them advertising, since I sort of mentally associate advertising with me being asking to buy things I wouldn't otherwise want.

It's sort of like the (ethical version of) SEO marketing - it actually does what you want it to do by flagging up relevant and useful things when you google them.

Yeah, I don't really think of them as advertising either, because they're so carefully targeted.

It's like the "Of the people looking at this page, 85% bought this item, 10% bought a variant, and 5% bought a yak." - it's just _useful_ to see that.

Mmmm. Yak.
