Do you laugh at virus/malware ads?

Not laughing. Cogitating. Fretting. I think of all the good guys trying to keep up with the mess, like

And then I am reminded that the time is quickly coming to switch my wife's Win 10 laptop over to Kubuntu, and the work/prep that will take. Nope, it is no laughing matter.

How bad will it be? It's been about twelve years since I last [physically] switched a window$ user to Kubuntu, my mom, and it was a cinch. I just saved her important files over the network, wiped the drive, and installed Kubuntu. I'll always remember that--after a while of using Linux--my mom, who was no computer geek by any stretch of the imagination, asked me why she no longer had to reboot all the time.

It's hard to feel badly for them when they're the ones making the choice to use an OS that is just so...wrong...in so many ways. Sure, I realize that they're probably unaware of Linux, but anyone with a little effort can find out about alternatives to window$ pretty easily.

I recently saw an ad for the "FixItStick", or some name similar to that. They listed the threats that the stick "cured":
viruses
keyboard loggers
malware
Trojans
file lockers

Notice something unusual about that list?

I normally record anything I might want to watch and then zap through the ads, but I occasionally watch something in real time and come across ads for poor micro$oft users and the plethora of viruses, adware, malware, and so on that they deal with. I always laugh. I can't help myself. Do you react the same way?
