What ads are even on a Pepsico website? Why would Pepsi need 3rd party advertising on their own website?
Probably telemetry, which most ad blockers also block. I think you meant kfc instead of pepsi
KFC is under the PepsiCo monopoly
Yum (KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut) split from Pepsi a couple decades ago back in 1997.
TIL. Damn it
Not anymore though. They spun kfc, taco bell, and pizza hut years ago and they are under the yum brand now. They still have exclusive contracts regarding fountain. Not sure what other connections are left.
Yeah..
Hate to break it to you but our world is owned by like 11 companies
no it isn't, it's owned by yum brands, a Chinese restaurant conglomerate. not better, but not pepsico either.
I went and looked up the Wikipedia page out of curiosity when someone disagreed that they're a Chinese conglomerate and thought I'd share for anyone else reading the thread.
Short answer: not a Chinese conglomerate.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yum%21_Brands?wprov=sfla1
well shit, i didn't look that close. i just knew it wasn't PepsiCo.
Glad I could provide additional context :)
Hope you have a good one!
A Chinese conglomerate publicly traded on the NYSE who reports in USD and files with the SEC? A Chinese conglomerate with their headquarters in Kentucky whose majority investors are institutional? A Chinese conglomerate with most shares owned by people or companies in America and whose executives are all American?
They could be owned by sewer rats. But that wouldn't matter 'cause I don't eat the mother fucker anyway.
You order online for delivery to avoid COVID only to catch a computer virus from an ad. I used to watch my relatives browse to a news page and IMMEDIATELY get hit with a "MICROSOFT ERROR CALL xxx-xxx-xxxx TO FIX IT". Then I put ublock origin on their PC aaaaaaand good game ads!
