The study I mean, it says people don&#8217;t like clicking on ads they think are a part of the website only to find out they&#8217;ve been tricked and it&#8217;s an ad.<\/p>\n<p>Study also shows that when people realized they&#8217;ve been tricked, they have less trust in the brand advertising. Yikes. Companies paying for people\u00a0getting a bad impression of them.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry marketers. The native ads were a cute idea, but it seems they do more harm than good.
