> In other words, how long before people get tired of clickbaits? Somewhat facetiously, "is clickbait more like banner ads, or more like porn?" Is it useless, or is it something people actually want sometimes? Once people realized that flashing "punch-the-monkey" gifs never led anywhere useful, they quickly stopped clicking. However, porn is something people actually want, and it just needs to be "good enough," not "the very best porn on the internet." While clickbait is low-quality content, it's still useful to someone looking for a 10-minute distraction while on the bus or at lunch. Similarly, Demand Media's content farms are extremely low quality, but might be good enough if I'm just searching for how to brine a turkey or something. Like soap operas and 24-hour "news," I think clickbait serves a real need, and isn't going anywhere.

I am very petty about this one bug and have a very old axe to grind that this reminded me of!
Not just the edge router.
