Click bait avoided, a prerelease build of Windows suggests some kind of general advertising in the start menu beyond promoting ads.
The article also calls this a "leak." Is it really a leak if it's in the insider Windows build that Microsoft makes freely available to anyone who wants it?
It's datamining a hidden feature. I'd call that a leek.
