No matter where else I go, I get ads for test equipment, motorcycle stuff, airplane stuff, etc.

It's when I come to DU that I get that Confederate flag ad. The claim is that the proprietors have no control over ad placement, but that claim is a lie. If they were willing to accept less revenue, they could restrict those ads.
