This doesn't even make sense. Simply mentioning the name of a product I use is not advertising. Otherwise, is every person here who mentions Tesla advertising too?

Sorry, I actually meant to refer to Birken's comment above. Advertising might not have been the best word - astroturfing? If you read their comment but replace "comma" with "tesla" it still reads as spammy.

Yours was fine (though discussing downvotes will always get you downvotes, my comment included).

Only the ones who needlessly sing the praises of the Tesla autopilot in barely-related threads.
