    This title, in combination with the color of the badge (which resembles Ask DN), is very misleading. It makes me—and likely others—think that this is a serious question posed by a DN user.

    I think that there should be restrictions on what titles are allowed by advertisers who show native ads on DN.

    Edit: interestingly, ”Sponsor:” prefaces the title when editing a comment: Screenshot

      Absolutely agree. I have clicked this Title several times for several days to see what is the question and what are the comments and until now I did not even know it was and AD.

      That is not okay...

        Hey Kevin / Kris... we most certainly want to be wary of situations like this, and ensure sponsorships are both noted as such and representative of the DN brand/audience.

        Can I ask, where did you first see this story? (desktop, mobile, Twitter, etc)

      Alternatively you could pay for a subscription. Let's face it, using a 'back' button / shortcut is a massive ball ache.

    we should make the sponsor icon pink with a big dollar sign on it so it's easy to avoid
