<i>I had not heard about this, but honestly I could not care less. If people just ignored this shit rather than pandering to the trolls, maybe there'd be no incentive for them to keep doing it.</i><p>eBay has (or had?) a habit of spamming ads in Google searches that said things like "Looking for ${WHAT_YOU_SEARCHED_FOR}? Buy it new or used on eBay!", no matter what you'd searched for.<p>So of course people would search for all kinds of imaginary/dangerous/illegal/offensive/etc. things just to see if it would spawn any "hilarious" auto-generated eBay ads.
